“It’s true that [Riccado] Ricco had said that I’ll win here but in reality it is a coincidence. Everyon is trying to have their own way and excel when an opportunity presents, but nothing is ever certain. This was not planned. Our directeur sportif is not a magician! _ “In the final we had Cobo, who has some different ambitions to mine; he’d like to have a good result in the general classification. In 2006 he lost over 20 minutes on the climb to Plateaux de Beille, otherwise he would have finished in the top five overall. And I have been fifth in a stage of the Tour and that was already enough to have some good memories. But I still have dreams and a win was one of them. Today is better than a dream!”
