“AG2R tried to make the race a bit hard for the stage win. We took the good positions back for our team. We rode our pace from the bottom of the last climb to defend the jersey. We still have the yellow-blue jersey in the team, so it’s fine. Today it was the first big block of mountains but we still have a lot of climbs to come. I don’t know what I can do in GC. My role here is to try and help Kwiato and G [Geraint Thomas], mainly G for the GC. Alaphilippe was the strongest for winning the stage in this relatively short finale but Geraint is the strongest for winning the overall. My role will not change despite having the jersey. I didn’t expect to lead the race, I will enjoy wearing this jersey tomorrow for sure but G and Kwiato are the two guys who can win this race.”
