“It’s been a very fast day. We thought there would be some tension but we didn’t foresee this much. It hasn’t stopped all day. In the finale, we’ve seen the opportunity and we took advantage of it to split the bunch. I think it’s something good: the Tour de France is also won in stages like this one, you have to use all terrains. My team did a perfect job. Tomorrow and after tomorrow we have two complicated. We’ve just had two hard stages. Tomorrow, it’ll be a GC day for sure. We’ll have to be very focused, try and not lose any time, take the opportunity if there’s any, and if not, stay quiet.”
