"No, I’m not disappointed. I’m actually super happy. You always want victory, but we had super good performance. I’m super happy this really hard day is over. You prepare for just 20 minutes and it’s stressful. Still, I enjoyed today, it was a long time since I last raced a TTT. I can be happy about today and motivated for next days.
I was quite sure the climb was going to go well. Isaac [del Toro] did an amazing job, he’s such a good kid. Everybody went over their limits. Thanks to them, I have the polka-dot jersey.
Tomorrow? First I need to chill and decompress, although we don’t have much time. It will be a tricky stage, for puncheurs. The finale will be hectic, and things can also get complicated before that. We’ll have to pay attention tomorrow and do our best in the finale."
