"I understand the questions. It’s hard to get to know Jonas," says one of his best teammates, Wout van Aert. "He is very reserved, and on days like today, when he has to meet the press and give interviews, he doesn’t like that at all. He prefers to let his legs do the talking. He is shy, it’s true, but when the good sensations and confidence are there, he passes information on to us and he becomes an almost easy leader for his teammates. He shows that he wants to win, that he wants to attack. It’s certain that he is different from what the images might show." (x)
