00:00Well, first of all, what was the plan this morning?

00:03The plan this morning was to get Christian Eiking in the breakaway, and a lot of groups

00:10were going, and in the end there we were not in the breakaway, so we had to try to get

00:15up to the breakaway.

00:16We tried some times, and in the end I came up to the breakaway, but this was very hard.

00:25So I was very tired when I came up, but I recovered good and drank a lot, and then I

00:31feel better in all the climbs, and luckily I get my mountain jersey today, so I'm so

00:36happy for that.

00:38You were a climber before, and now you're more of an all-rounder.

00:42What does it mean to have that jersey on your shoulders on the Tour de France?

00:46Yeah, it's crazy.

00:47Before I was around 60 kilos and a climber, and now I am around 80, and I climb better

00:54now than when I was 60, so I'm very happy to do this change from some years ago, and

01:00now I feel stronger every year, so it's so nice.

01:04Now you have it, you want to keep it.

01:06Yes, it's a hard stage tomorrow, but maybe not so many points, so we will see, maybe

01:12have it for some days.

01:14I'm very happy to have a mountain jersey in the Tour de France, it's so big for me.

01:18Thank you.
