After Pascal Ackermann recorded his 12th victory of the season on stage 3 of the Tour of Guangxi, there was a jubilant mood at the Bora-Hansgrohe mini-van in Nanning. Max Schachmann was among the riders celebrating a job well done but took a moment out to talk about his season, safety and his plans for 2020.

The 25-year-old had been one of the strongest riders of the spring this year, winning five races including stages at the Vuelta al País Vasco and Volta a Catalunya, as well as finishing top five at each race of the Ardennes Classics.
