Andy Schleck – “From the left and right, we attacked him...”

“We don’t have so many chances on this Tour but the ones that we have, we take. Yesterday after the stage, I was really down because of the crash of Jens (Voigt) but hopefully we could cheer him up a little with what we did in the stage today. Everything worked out as we planned it.
“Now we have the time trial, so everybody will be on his own. Then we go up Mont Ventoux and it’s true that Contador is really strong… but we saw today that we were able to isolate him and on the Ventoux we might see the same thing. We’ll wait and see but a win there would be fantastic.
“There comes a time when we all get a little bit tired. It could be the same for Contador. I would never say that he’s insecure but perhaps he’s a little bit nervous; he has ridden now with two Schlecks around him and – bang, bang! From the left and right we attacked him… but it was also a good operation by him today.”
