00:00 I'm looking forward to have some fun, it's my first time in Singapore, my first time
00:16 doing these criteriums after the season.
00:21 I'm looking forward to it, it's going to be fun and good racing and just discovering new
00:28 culture and have a good time.
00:32 Exciting times ahead, ladies and gentlemen, as we move on.
00:39 We adore you all, how does that feel?
00:44 I have the opportunity to wear it another time here in Singapore, so I think it's really
00:58 special and I really want to enjoy this moment.
01:01 First time here in the city and I have to say I'm very surprised by the people and it's
01:07 very beautiful.
01:08 How are you acclimatising?
01:09 How are you getting...
01:10 And I'm happy to be here.
01:11 It's quite special, you see the people come out, they enjoy the place.
01:22 I really enjoy it, I like being in Singapore, it's good to be back.
01:25 It's really an honour, in this race there's so many star riders and to be sitting next
01:33 to them at a pre-race press conference or something like that is already a real privilege.
01:40 I'm a rookie against them, I'm just a new kid to say it like that and they're already
01:47 in the game a really long time.
01:50 Robbie is obviously already retired but had an amazing career and now it's up to me trying
01:56 to do the same.
01:57 So what will happen in one round, it will be a time trial.
02:21 So it's a relay, it's timed.
02:33 Any strategy here Mark at all?
02:36 Focus.
02:37 Mark's ready.
02:38 I was very surprised in the end, the bicycle doesn't break.
03:06 You can win this.
03:19 I took the lightest guy I could find so I hope we can go for it.
03:34 Did you learn anything today from the tactics of Sagan and Cavendish and Froome?
03:40 I was not watching them.
03:51 About the power of Sagan and Cavendish?
03:53 I think so, for us it's difficult but we have Philippe so maybe he can do something better
03:59 for us.
04:00 Good luck.
04:01 Okay guys, you took the victory.
04:19 How do you feel about that?
04:21 It was hard.
04:23 Wait a minute.
04:24 I'm not going to do it.
04:50 Nothing gives them the experience more than actually being able to take part in it themselves.
04:59 You can see them already just sprinting around and having fun.
05:03 That's what bike racing should be like as a kid, just having fun.
05:06 It's super cool, I think if I could do a crit, Froome is waving it up.
05:17 It would be so cool and where we are as well for kids like that to do a crit in this place
05:21 is crazy.
05:22 Drive!
05:22 Drive!
