Luis Angel Mate (Cofidis): “Today I was tired after the last three days. In addition there weren’t much KOM points so I hope I can rest a bit these days thinking about the stage to La Covatilla (stage 9). I’m happy to retain this jersey, for me and for the team, and I hope I can get some more points. The next days are a bit different, I think it will be two sprints, and we have to be hopeful ahead of the most important day for the mountain classification, on Sunday.”
