Coming from this article from Escape Collective written by Iain Treloar, which I really recommend. It captures Jonas quite well.

Escape Collective

Jonas Vingegaard’s Tour de France was a Venn diagram - Escape Collective

The two-time Tour de France winner's second-place finish sits at the centre of three circles labelled pride, pain, and perseverance. 

'The press conference see-saws back and forth between questions for Vingegaard and questions for Evenepoel. The younger man is full of compliments for his peers, “the best two in the world,” and proud that he was able to round out the podium behind them. For Evenepoel, the big breakthrough was being consistent. He stumbles on the word a couple of times; Vingegaard looks over to him, smiles warmly, quietly gives him an assist with the pronunciation. Again, not the robot he’s sometimes painted as.'

"Hi guys, After in my bedroom for the last 30 minutes trying to record a video message for you, but I can't speak the words I want to tell you without falling into tears. So that's why I'm doing it this way. I'm incredibly proud on your successes of course but also on the resilience you showed after every setback. To Wout & Jonas. When I saw you on tv crying from the pain on the side of the road, I wanted to switch places. I would have taken your injuries if that were possible, just so you could go on chasing your goals and chasing your ambitions like we did together over the past years. I'm still trying to accept the fact that I had to retire. And Jonas & Wout, I don't think you realise how big of an impact you have on this process. You guys give me so much energy when I see videos from you back on the bike, recovering, getting better, improving and chasing your goals. You are able to realize the most remarkable things together as a team. Side by side. Now I'll be there this summer on the side of the road in France. I will always be on your side.

I'll see you soon, stay healthy. Big hug Nathan."
