Joaquim “Purito” Rodriguez: "Riding on the flat like this means a lot"

The polka dot jersey isn't a goal but it's a very nice and very historical jersey to wear. If there's an opportunity, I'll go for it later in the Tour but we're here with two goals: prepare the sprints for Kristoff and there are a few of coming from tomorrow onwards, and ride GC with myself. I've passed the pavés very well. Being at the front on a flat stage with my team-mates means that I'm in a great shape.
