Peter Sagan: "Third is better than fourth"

It has been quite a messy sprint today. I’m happy nobody crashed, and overall I feel this has been a positive day. The hardest part has been the sprint, of course. I was lucky I was on Fernando’s wheel, because that helped me reaching the finish line in third position. I didn’t have the legs to be first or second, and third is better than fourth. It was a boring stage, but it was okay to have a stage without stress, under the sun, without wind. I had time to spoke with everybody in the peloton.
