"It was the perfect tactics from us to be patient, to wait. We did the descent from Coll d’Ordino on the front and that was the good decision. Then I felt super good on the final climb with a long but very strong sprint so I’m super happy with this stage win. For us it would have been a very good thing to have a breakaway gone but when we caught [Lennard Kämna], we had to be focused with the stage win. That’s when I decided to go for it. I felt I had a big punch still in my legs. I’m gonna enjoy the red jersey. It’s a beautiful victory here in Andorra, at high altitude. It shows my preparation was good and that I’m ready for the next three weeks."
