Miguel Angel Lopez (Astana), winner of stage 11: “The truth is I'm very happy. It was a very hard stage, we spend more energy with the rain. I'm very happy because the team has been working very well since the beginning of La Vuelta. Our teammates had to work a lot for Fabio (Aru) and I. It's been impressive and in the end we found the good legs. I knew the final a little bit so I was cool headed and I chose to wait for the very steep last kilometre. I hope to maintain the progression I've had so far. Last year, a crash unfortunately took me out of La Vuelta but this year I'm feeling a lot of calm and I go step by step.”
