Adam Yates: "Nobody would have wanted the jersey like that"

“Cycling is the only sport where people can be so close to the players. It has some risks. I was with Quintana and Valverde when Froome had a problem. I felt good but not good enough to follow Froome and Porte. Nobody would have wanted to take the yellow jersey like this so it's a good decision the jury has taken. Tomorrow it's a time trial. It's not my specialty. I hope to lose the less time possible.”
