“We went full gas. There were very tricky and steep climbs at the end. When Julian Alaphilippe attacked in the finale, I was surprised. He managed to hang to the finish, congratulations to him! He made a very strong attack. Tomorrow, we’ll try to go for a bunch sprint. The situation for me now could be better and it could be worse. I only have a few more points than Michael Matthews. Nothing is done yet for the green jersey. It’s still a long way to Paris.”
