“It was such a difficult race because it goes so fast and it’s so hard to make a gap. I went into the race thinking that I was just going to let it happen and adapt to the situation. I didn’t think I would have so much control from the start. I knew exactly what I had to do.”
“From the moment I was at the front, I had full control of the race. I also had the best man with me, because I knew he would ride for the podium. It was perfect, 100 percent perfect. The Spaniard was very strong, I knew this was a big goal for him and to have him with us was perfect. We understood each other very well. We rode full speed ahead of the stage. This sweater means a lot. It’s crazy to be able to ride in a different jersey next week. I have no words for it.”
