"The beginning was super fast, they rode at a very fast pace on the front. On the final hills there were many attacks, but when this group of riders went away the peloton relaxed a bit. And I’m happy for that, because I think the roads were not adequate for a peloton racing. Everything is possible, but it would be unbelievable if I won the Tour de France tomorrow. The Mountains jersey? It’s an ITT, so I’ll go full gas from start to finish, like I do always. It’s not about making priorities. It doesn’t matter on which order we start tomorrow: it’s an ITT and everyone will be alone out there, fighting for himself. It’s a secret if I am going to swap bikes tomorrow [before the final climb]: if I tell now, everyone will know!"
