"It was quite an easy day even if it was fast at the beginning. It was a breakaway day so we took it kind of easy behind. Okay, there was a lot of wind so the team had to do some work all the way to Gap but it wasn’t too stressful. I had a little bit of time to enjoy my first day in the yellow jersey.
“I can tell you the first hour was really hard but after the breakaway was gone it was okay. I was quite nervous on the last downhill, it was a bit dangerous but for the rest of the day it was good.
“It was not a day for me to do anything. Even if it was quite up and down, there was nothing for me to achieve. I was lucky because I had bad legs from yesterday and so did all the others who actually rode really hard yesterday.
“There’s not really anything to stress about right now. I enjoy my yellow jersey, I enjoy having every one around… I enjoy the atmosphere in the team and having the guys working so well for me. Of course I’m happy and relaxed. I know there’s hard work coming up but that’s what I’ve been training for since the Tour ended in Paris last year.”
