"We took the final climb hard. I felt that Jonas was super good. I knew I could not drop him because the climb was too easy. I tried to improvise and let Adam [Yates] go so he could grab a few seconds for the GC. He is now closer to the podium, which is super nice. We can head into the third week with lots of confidence. We feel good, we have good legs. Today’s was a really good team performance. We have a rest day tomorrow, and yet another one for some of the guys on Tuesday. Let’s see after the rest day how to tackle these final decisive stages. As for the ITT, I know the route very good. I hope it suits me pretty well. It’s a very parcourse and can’t way to get started."
