00:00William, a very tough day for you. First of all, could you explain what happened in that
00:07final sprint?
00:08Yeah, unfortunately today was not an easy finish. We know this is the last sprint stage
00:19and then everybody gets more excited and then try to do as much as they can in the front
00:26and then I also try to be there and then there is also a lot of roundabouts, the last 10k
00:32and then it gets narrow every roundabout and then suddenly, I don't know who is from EF,
00:39we touch our 100 bar, he goes inside me and then I don't have nothing to do, I just brake
00:44full but yeah, I just find myself on the ground but luckily I'm okay, I'm able to ride so
00:51that's a good thing.
00:53What did you hurt?
00:54Yeah, the most hurt is I land with my knee, so my knee is like you see now, it's big,
00:59also my elbow, I have already two stitches but that's not a problem.
01:05You're a fighter?
01:06Yeah, why not? I'm okay.
01:08Yeah, the question is, tomorrow morning when you'll get back on the bike, you hope to be
01:14in at least in a decent shape?
01:17Yeah, it's always like this, you know, when you crash the day it's okay but when you wake
01:23up in the morning, that hurts a lot but to be honest, mentally I'm okay so that's not
01:28going to be a problem so we will see tomorrow, hopefully I will be okay.
01:32The fact that Jasper won today is not very good news for you and for the green jersey
01:37but you don't want to think about that?
01:39Ah no, no, when I crashed and then I woke up, I saw I'm able to ride my bike, I was
01:47happy like I said, for me I don't care if I lose this jersey or I keep, I just like
01:53to arrive in Nice without any trouble so yeah, still now, not finished yet so I will try
01:59to fight until Nice.
02:01Recover well.
02:02Thank you.
