Keeping relaxed with my eyes on the podium

Are you happy with your performance so far?To be fully satisfied I need a stage victory.  I´m going to give it everything in the final week. I´m going to do my very best to make the podium. That has been my main objective since the start of the Giro and nothing has changed.Is there a real possibility that you can still win overall?I don’t know if I stand a chance but the battle for the first position remains open.How, do you expect, the race will develop?We have three really hard stages and a time trial ahead of us. It is possible that we all will be sitting with 10 seconds gap in the GC and the time trial will be the race-decider. So far the riders are very tight. Rodriguez and Hesjedal are those who have stuck out most in the mountains.Are you worn-out?Not much. It is not that I had been longing for the rest day but it came in handy because of the hard week ahead of us.What tactics is the Astana team going to use in the final stages?We will go day by day. We definitely can´t complain about the present progress and we are staying relaxed.Which of the three mountain stages do you consider the hardest?I guess the Friday´s stage with the finish in Alpe di Pampeago although, the Wednesday´s and Saturday´s stages will be extremely difficult as well.
