“I tried to anticipate the fight that Fedrigo would provide after coming out of the final turn because I know that he’s faster than me in the sprint. I tried but it didn’t go exactly according to plan. But I haven’t finished yet… I will try again!
“I knew it would be hard to stay away but we always thought it was possible. It was difficult because we could see that the peloton was going faster and faster in the finale but I believed in the move right until the end that’s why we worked so well together.
“My objective was to win a stage of the Tour de France but my other goal was to get the polka-dot jersey. And while the Ventoux is appealing, but before we get there we have a lot of stages. It would be great to win this important stage but we take it day after day and we’ll see how I am on the last Saturday.”
