00:00 (dramatic music)
00:02 - Do you have an explanation on the fact that today
00:08 the guys managed to make it to the finish
00:10 and it wasn't a bunch sprint, why?
00:12 - Why, yeah, I also ask myself.
00:16 I think we did everything we could.
00:17 We hold it on one minute, never too far.
00:20 A lot of teams were chasing, so we're definitely
00:23 not the only one that was chasing.
00:24 And I think everybody went full gas trying to catch them,
00:29 but they stayed in front, so they must have
00:31 amazing legs in the front.
00:32 - Is it also the fact that it's week three?
00:35 - Yeah, that's possible.
00:36 Everybody's tired a bit.
00:37 But yeah, of course I wanted to sprint today,
00:40 but yeah, they were really strong in the front
00:43 and it was just not good enough for sprinting for the win.
00:48 - For you, I suppose, a disappointing day,
00:52 although you still finished fourth.
00:55 - Yeah, sure.
00:57 I wanted to win today, but okay,
01:01 it's not been a bad tour so far,
01:02 so I can be happy with four stage wins already.
01:04 And also I do good, take some points
01:08 for the green jersey again, so that's looking good.
01:11 And tomorrow it's another day, and hopefully on Sunday.
