00:00 Yeah we think that this is not the perfect stage for me.
00:09 But yeah then when they started riding on the last climb I had the feeling I had good
00:15 legs.
00:16 So then I said to Seb that maybe he goes on the front and then he did and I decided to
00:23 attack as well.
00:24 So you're telling us that there was no bigger plan up front about this scenario?
00:31 No.
00:32 I mean we talked this scenario through but we thought it would be really hard to do.
00:38 And it would have been even nicer if we had one guy on top of course.
00:42 That's like the dream scenario but yeah we also went super super fast on the climb.
00:47 You cannot expect the guys to be there on top.
00:51 Were you surprised that Pogacar couldn't follow you?
00:55 Yeah actually yes.
00:58 I mean I wanted to test him a bit and yeah my legs were good and I'm super happy with
01:02 where I am.
01:03 So you gained more than a minute on Pogacar.
01:04 You were the hunter today I think.
01:05 You got the prize.
01:06 Sorry?
01:07 You gained more than a minute on Pogacar today.
01:08 You were the hunter today.
01:09 You were the hunter.
01:10 Yeah yeah I mean what is the question sorry.
01:11 More than a minute is a great result today.
01:12 The game is over.
01:13 Yeah yeah I mean I'm super happy with taking a minute.
01:26 That's a good time gain for me and yeah as I said I'm super happy about it.
01:31 And today you are the favourite of the French Tour no?
01:34 The absolute favourite.
01:35 Yeah I don't know I mean we'll just do our best and we'll see what it ends with in Paris.
01:41 Over there eh?
01:42 A little bit like here.
01:43 Congratulations.
01:44 Congratulations.
01:45 Can you tell us how you did it today?
01:46 Yeah I mean sorry.
01:47 A little bit back.
01:48 Like the whole plan or just like eh?
01:49 Well the whole plan.
01:50 Tell me about the whole plan today.
01:51 Yeah so first of all we wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
01:52 We ended up with two guys.
01:53 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
01:54 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
01:55 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
01:56 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
01:57 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
01:58 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
01:59 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
02:00 We wanted to have a guy in the breakaway as satellite rider.
02:23 And then on the final climb we eh I felt good and then I said to Seb that he should go to
02:29 the front and eh yeah start pushing and he did and yeah then I attacked.
02:35 Did you know that Bogacar had his weaknesses today?
02:39 Eh no I mean no.
02:42 I just felt good and then yeah I just look at myself and eh see where if I feel good
02:49 then I try to attack.
02:51 How big of a blow is this do you think to your main rivals and especially Bogacar?
02:57 Yeah I don't know I mean I think you have to ask him.
03:00 I know today he never gives up so eh will be a fight all the way to Paris.
03:04 How do you feel about the cap already in the GC?
03:09 It's already the difference of 53 seconds between you and today Bogacar.
03:14 I mean I'm super happy with having 53 seconds and yeah it's super nice.
03:21 How concerned are you about Jai Hindley?
03:24 I mean of course we have to look to Jai Hindley and eh yeah in the stage today we also really
03:29 eh yeah during the stage we're really eh thinking ah should we also put a guy on the front or
03:34 not or yeah and then we decided not.
03:37 Because being in the break it takes a lot of energy and yeah of course we have to think
03:42 about Jai as well.
03:43 Was that a super day for you or just a normal day for you as finger guard?
03:48 Oh I think I had a super good day yes.
