Tadej Pogacar: "My wrist is a bit sore..."

"The plan was to go for the bonus seconds and win the stage. We didn’t win, but it’s still a good day – except for Matteo Trentin’s crash, I hope he is well. Now I expect that we will take it easier over the next two days. We are in a perfect situation right now. After yesterday’s stage, what we had to do today was quite clear: defend the jersey, and take some more seconds on our rivals.
My wrist is now a bit sore after all the sprinting today, but it’s better every day. Today’s stage was a bit bumpy and technical, with many speed bumps, corners and potholes. Even if it’s a bit sore now, it feels better every day, so no problem."
