I’m very happy about this, and have to thank all my BORA-hansgroheteammates for their support today at the Tour de Suisse. They trust me enough to work so hard through the day and it means I can go for the win. I was thinking about the team’s tactics and in the end, it worked out exactly as we had planned. I’m very happy to have won the stage. All my preparation has been good and I’m feeling a bit more relaxed about the rest of the race now. There’s a lot of hard work that goes into these wins behind the scenes. My legs aren’t at their best yet and I still have some work to do before Le Tour de France, but I’m looking forward to the rest of the race. (Photo @BettiniPhoto)
Teším sa z toho a ďakujem chalanom z BORA-hansgrohe za ich dnešnú podporu. Verili mi a celý deň tvrdo makali až sa mi podarilo vyhrať. Rozmýšľal som nad tým ako by sme to mali urobiť, ale nakoniec to vyšlo podľa plánu. Teším sa z etapového víťazstva, ale aj z toho, že moja príprava bola dobrá. Cítim, že všetko klape, môžem byť pokojný pred ďalšími etapami a aj naďalej pôjdeme naplno. Nohy zatial nemám v dokonalej forme, ale do Tour de France na tom ešte určite zapracujem a teším sa na nasledujúce pretekové dni.
