"It's never nice to hear that one of your team-mates crashed, especially when it's Geraint Thomas, who gave everything for me since the start of the race and is a GC contender in his own right. But he's OK, he's a tough cookie and he'll be back in the next couple of days. It was unfortunate to lose Peter Kennaugh He had a tough last couple of days with illness and spent a lot of energy trying to stay in the race yesterday. We saw the GC teams attack in the climb, Tinkoff Saxo attacked and then Valverde and Nibali. We can expect the same in the four days left until we reach Paris. We expect to be attacked everywhere. On the flat, in crosswinds, in the climbs. But I'm confident we have the team to control the race and take the jersey back to Paris. Physically and mentally everyone is exhausted and looking forward to the rest day. My wife is coming so I hope to spend a little bit of time with her."
