Nic Nuyens (Quick Step) has taken his second win of the year and Quick Step's second of the Tour de Suisse with victory on stage 3 to Arlesheim. A very happy Nuyens also took the leader's yellow jersey in the process and said after the finish it has provided him with the motivation to do well during the week and into the Belgian national championships. "I'm in good form at the moment. At the national championships I'll be giving my all for Boonen but if the occasion arises, I'll certainly go for a victory," he said.
