Simon Yates: “I expect a more aggressive racing this weekend”

“It wasn't an easy day. Maybe it looked easy on TV but it was not. At the beginning it was nice and relaxed, just how I like it. But it didn't last for long. Because of the crosswinds, it became a stressful day. The team did a good job for me. I only had to stay in the wheels. Many people aren't far away from Chris Froome on GC so I expect a more aggressive racing this weekend. There's no really flat anymore.”
