00:00Three years after, you're back where you've always wanted to be, on top of the Tour de France.
00:06Congratulations, you're a happy man.
00:08Yeah, I'm super happy.
00:10I cannot describe how happy I am after two hard years in the Tour de France.
00:18Always some mistakes, and this year everything to perfection.
00:23I'm out of words, so I'm super happy to win here.
00:29Incredible.
00:31You were always in control?
00:33Yeah, I think this is the first Grand Tour where I was totally confident every day.
00:42Even in Giro, I remember I had one bad day, but I won't tell which one.
00:48This year, Tour de France was just amazing.
00:52I was enjoying from day one until today.
00:57I had such great support behind me.
01:00I just couldn't let anyone down, so I was enjoying for them as well.
01:05You said you enjoyed it until today, and today you really enjoyed it, but still you had to win.
01:13Today I started with a good vibe in Monaco.
01:18It was a really lovely start on the Formula One grid.
01:25One of the best Formula circuits in the world, I think the best one ever.
01:30First, I was just listening to the time cut to Remco.
01:38I didn't have any other time gaps, but in the end, I felt super good.
01:45Over the top of the first climb, I felt super good.
01:49In my head, I had Hurka's sentence that she hates me for doing all the time this route on the training.
01:59We did it so many times this year, so I was like, I will not waste it.
02:04I will have it under control, but I will not waste today's preparations for today.
02:10You entered the legend of cycling winning the Giro and the Tour de France the same year.
02:16What does that mean to you?
02:18It's incredible. I would never have thought about this.
02:24Maybe some people would think that the Giro was a safety net if I didn't succeed in the Tour de France.
02:31For sure, it would be if I didn't succeed at the Tour.
02:35If I would win only the Giro, that would be already an incredible year.
02:44To win the Tour de France is another level.
02:48To win both together is another level, above that level.
02:52I'm super happy and really proud that we did it.
02:57What's next? A fourth, fifth or sixth Tour?
03:00Next, I want to win.
03:02Van Der Poel looks really good in the World Championships jersey, but I want to take it from him this year.
03:08We will see.
03:11I want one time to have a rainbow jersey on my back, but I still have time for that.
03:18You have amazing rivals, with Remco and with Jonas. It makes cycling amazing.
03:24In the last two years, we've been hearing that this is the best era of cycling, the best competition ever.
03:33If I would not be competing myself, I could also say it's the best cycling era ever, at least for the GC.
03:44This kind of competition with Remco, Jonas, Primoz is just incredible.
03:52There are young guys that are coming more and more.
03:56I think we can all enjoy this moment of cycling. It's beautiful, in my opinion.
04:02Congratulations and enjoy. Celebrate with your friends.
04:06Thank you.
