“This could not be more beautiful. This morning we had planned, Sylvain and I – each, in turn, would attack. And we managed to find us both in the same breakaway, which is already great. Then, pretty soon, we've agreed to help me get some points for the climbing classification and I support him then on the final. But he did not even need me!
“It's magic. A day like this, it happens maybe once in a career. I feel the team we went on the same dynamics as what we had at the Giro d’Italia.
“With regard to the falls that have disrupted the peloton… well, often the misfortune of some makes the happiness of others. This allowed Sylvain to win the stage and take the yellow jersey, but I do not think he will win the Tour de France! Anyway, all the favorites were able to regroup in the peloton and finish together.”
