Tadej Pogacar: "I tried to play it safe today"

"I’m satisfied about today’s stage. I had good legs, and tried to save some energy over the stage, in order to use them in the next few days. It has been a really hard stage, and I knew that every wrong move meant spending energy that would be necessary in the coming days. I tried to play it safe today, for no dangerous break to go away. It would have been great to put Adam Yates on a break, as then the team would have been able to take it easier. I know tomorrow’s final climb. I hope to have a good legs tomorrow."
