00:00 The victory was good because from the start of the Tour it was complicated for the team?
00:13 Yes it was complicated but the riders were always in it.
00:18 I think that if Julien's spirit was important he managed to escape a lot.
00:24 I think that the spirit in the team was always good.
00:27 He believed it from the start because few people thought he would escape today?
00:31 It's difficult to say because you know that when he's with you he's a good rider.
00:36 You have to wait until the moment he escapes.
00:40 When he comes to the peloton in 30 seconds you have to wait until you can really ride in block.
00:48 It was good that he came. That was the signal to ride in block.
00:53 Was it decided at the briefing this morning that Kasper would go in front?
00:56 No, we said we would see the other teams.
01:00 He started first in three colours. You know you have to have a bit of luck.
01:06 He didn't go in front either. He played a bit behind and left a minute.
01:11 It was a good signal that he came back.
01:16 After that there was a lot of downhill and the speed was very high.
01:21 Was it smart of you to come in front of the peloton to break Alpecin's relay?
01:27 No, they were in front as usual. I don't think he broke the road.
01:32 He was in front and that's the job of the team.
01:37 - Do you want to do a quick thing with the ladies? - Alright.
01:40 ♪ Ah, ah, ah, ah ♪
