German rider wins Trofeo Campos-Porreres-Felanitx-Ses Salines opening day beating Israel Cycling Academy\u2019s rider Sondre Holst Enger and Lotto Soudal\u2019s man Jasper De Buyst in a tight finish.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trek-Segafredo’s John Degenkolb admitted to feeling great about his first victory of the season and that he wouldn\u2019t be able to achieve that without the help of his team.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“It’s a great feeling to get the first victory already, to achieve this together with the team,” Degenkolb said. “We had a really nice week of training already this week in Mallorca, in the training camp, and to start the season like this with a win is always great.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“I felt really good; the team did a perfect job to make a good sprint for me. I have good memories of this race because for me this was my first professional race in 2011. Today was a great revival.”<\/p>\n
