Pierre Gautherat
«I told myself I was going to win this week, and I did.»
«I had a little plan in my head today, which was to attack on the final climb. The race got really tough on the hill and I decided to attack at the top despite the headwind. I managed to stay in front in the last kilometre, which is pretty crazy. I can't believe it. Tomorrow, we're going to try to have a great race with the team to get the best possible overall ranking. I want to thank them again for today because they worked really well. I told myself I was going to win this week and I did it. I'm really happy.»
