After winning Paris-Nice and Dwars door Vlaanderen earlier this spring, Matteo Jorgenson continues to push his limits and exceed his own expectations in 2024. This time, it was being able to stay with Primož Roglič’s attack from a reduced peloton to finish second on the Queen Stage at the Critérium du Dauphiné atop Samoëns 1600.
The American rider, who switched to Visma-Lease A Bike this year, moved up one spot to second overall, 1:02 behind Roglič with one stage to go. The 24-year-old also takes over the best young rider classification with a 56-second lead on his closest rival Carlos Rodríguez (Ineos Grenadiers).
