"I had a good race against the clock, because it is a course that suited me well. It was one of the most important time trial of my life, but perhaps not the best. I felt good, but I was a little tired from yesterday's stage.
Tomorrow's stage to Alpe d'Huez will be decisive. It is both exciting and challenging. For the moment I do not know anything about this place, I've never been there. I'll try to approach it with tranquillity. My goal is to keep me where I am, that is to say to defend my white jersey against Kwiatkowski, and try to fight with the race favourites.”
