"We had a good time with the team in the 25 opening kilometres. The guys did an amazing job. We wanted to score maximum points there. Of course it would have been nice to get rid of the other guys competing for the green, but we got the best out of the situation. It was a good day.
I would say that the top5 riders in the Points standings are my main rivals for the green jersey. We are going into two days where you can claim as many as 70 points at the finish line, and that counts a lot. Afterwards, we will go into my terrain and I hope things will work alright for me."
