His post-stage interview (Sporza, thus google translated, minor edits for better reading):

The Belgian champion showed today that he has fully recovered from the dip in the day before yesterday, but missed out on a second day victory.
 "I didn't know we were sprinting for the win," he said afterwards. "I thought the breakaway was still up the road. In the last kilometers they didn't say anything in my earpiece and I didn't hear anything anymore through all the people."
 "That's why I put myself so stupidly in Roglic's wheel in the last meters. I just wanted to be the first to enter the last corner and didn't even push to sprint."
However, the motivation to win this stage was initially there. "These are my home roads so I was very motivated and it went much better than yesterday. I think I could have won."
"Whether I'm angry with Klaas Lodewyck for the lack of communication? Yes, I'm going to send him home," Evenepoel joked.
Yet there was also something positive. "I didn't know what pace I drove, because I didn't have a power meter (after his bike switch). So it was a whole day by feel, but apparently fast enough to put Primoz Roglic and Jonas Vingegaard à bloc."
"My plan to let Sepp Kuss swim for a while and then drive there quietly has also succeeded," said Evenepoel. "So I showed today that I'm okay and the pains are gone. And the guys were good too, so that's positive for the next few days."
"It's just infuriating that bonus seconds were also linked to the sprint. When the disappointment goes away? Not knowing me, not quickly," he concludes (smiling).
