" I'd like to thank the team again ".
"It's quite nice after a few difficult years. I would like to thank the team again for their fantastic work. Let's now focus on the future. My next races could be the Dauphiné or the Tour Suisse. I'm preparing for the Tour France and I hope to be selected. I need a good, challenging race to prepare for it. I'm back up to speed, I might be lacking a little power in the final, but I'm making progress."
