"I’m happy to wear the polka dot jersey, and I’ll try to keep it for as long as possible, but I’ll probably lose it soon. I’m sure that Tadej Pogacar will eventually overtake me on the KOM classification. I hoped for a big break to go up to the road, with or without me, in order for it to take the KOM points up the road and prevent Pogacar from overtaking me today already. It went well – he only got points atop La Planche!"
