I’m enjoying wearing the yellow jersey
Saint Etienne
This is the first time that I’ve worn the Tour de France yellow jersey and it’s been a really special experience. Above all, people have been discussing and recalling yesterday’s stage. It has been a really special day for me…
In terms of today’s stage, the start was raced quickly before the breakaway, and then we were able to ride with a little more peace of mind. The team has controlled the race throughout, so today I've enjoyed wearing the yellow jersey and I've felt really good. I’m pretty much recovered from yesterday and am already thinking about tomorrow’s stage and just how close we are now to Paris.
