" I've optimized
"The finish took place in fog, and even though we'd come to scout the place on Thursday, we didn't have the same bearings at all. It was a blind sprint. Jesus Herrada launched and surprised everyone. Third isn't bad, but I'd have preferred to be two places higher up the ranking. I didn't have a good feeling at the start of the race but the final climb suited me well. I optimized. On this type of race, the aim is to win. This weekend, we're content with the places of honour."
