"I’m happy with how my legs turned today. I felt pretty good when we were going full gas due to the crosswinds. The first few kilometres were really crazy, but my whole team and me were at the front and feeling well. Matters became more relaxed from them on. We spent some energy at the front, because we pulled to control the bunch, but it’s been fine. I’ll better ride defensively from now on, because we saw yesterday at Mont Ventoux that there are many strong guys in the bunch. Anything can happen in the hot Pyrenees - because it is going to be hot! Anyway, my gap on the second-placed rider in the GC is big enough, so I’m not worried [about losing the Yellow jersey]."
