“It’s been a very difficult day but we still managed to keep an interesting position. I was close to losing the white jersey when I got dropped in the last climb. Eventually, I keep it but it won’t last for long. I can’t make it a goal for the end of the week. I got a good news this morning because the team decided to not take Primoz Roglic to the Tour de France after the Giro. It means I’m in. It’s a superb opportunity for me to take part in the Tour de France.”
