Your condition. “The important thing was to pedal hard. The pace of the Vuelta has affected us, due to the injury, due to the lack of competition after the Giro.
The phase. “Doing the time trial, defending ourselves and looking to see what happens was the idea and we fulfilled it”.
Surprise? “It’s a good time trial, I’ve prepared it well. The team has given me everything to take the time trial bike to where it was going. The preparation in that sense was essential”.
The keys. “The stage was very strong, focused. It will be one of my best times I’ve done, but I did good times before, like when I won the Tour of Switzerland.”
The condition. “That depends on how you prepare, your condition and what’s coming. I’m excited. The important thing was to get through the first week.”
The first part. “We saved the falls, we took a toll of not having competed before. We have decided to go little by little, suffering, but never delivered”.
