00:00Six years in French teams and finally you can do the Giro. Do you like the Giro?
00:05Yeah, actually, especially today, I'm really happy to be there also because it's the home stage for me
00:14and probably for my characteristics will be quite hard, especially on the final.
00:21But I will try to enjoy every moment of the day because, yeah, I'm from 10K from the finish line.
00:29Then I got the family, the friends and a lot of people that we cheer on the road.
00:35And, yeah, I will try to enjoy as much as possible.
00:39You are at home.
00:40Yeah, we arrive close to my home.
00:44So I know the roads and I think also the stage suits me quite well.
00:49So I will have to watch to the best riders today.
00:57So what does today's finish look like?
00:59Who does it suit?
01:02I think, yeah, how strong we have seen Pedersen so far.
01:08I think he's the favorite.
01:10And then, OK, Corbyn Strong, Pete Cook for sure.
01:14So fast guys, but also quite light, but at least powerful.
01:19We will see today in the final.
01:22Do you guys see today's stage as a breakaway stage or not at all?
01:26Not for me.
01:27I don't think it would be a breakaway.
01:28I think it seems like Q36.5 with Pidcock and Pedersen.
01:33I think these guys can control for a stage win.
01:36And if it's a breakaway, maybe I won't be in it.
01:39I missed out on an opportunity.
01:40But, yeah, hopefully just try to save the legs today.
01:43Do you see today's stage as an opportunity for a stage result for you or someone else?
01:49Or it will be important for Egan Bernal and GC riders?
01:53Yeah, I think before the Giro, maybe you think it's more of a punchy sprinter.
01:59But I think it's really, yeah, I think the way it's going to be raised will be more for the GC guys actually today.
02:05At this point of the Giro, you are 15th on GC.
02:10Are you happy with that?
02:11Does it mean you are doing GC more than stages?
02:13I mean, yeah, the GC is kind of, yeah, swimming just in the background.
02:20And, yeah, I think now that in the race, fatigue is starting to settle in a little bit.
02:27Everyone's feeling a bit tired.
02:28And, yeah, it's a lot in the head now.
02:35And, yeah, it's a lot in the head now.
