Too bad Nibali came closer, but I remain confident

Do you feel disappointed about the finish?There is nothing I can do now. I was happy about the Rodriguez´s move because he didn’t pose any threat in the GC and, in addition, he isn’t a good time trialist. I tried to guard Nibali and Horner but Sagan did a hell of job for Nibali. I was blocked and couldn’t react to his attack but it is no big deal. These things just happen in the bunch sprint. You, Nibali and Horner are going to battle for the overall victory in the tomorrow´s time trial. Who is the favorite?I think that we are all good time trialists so it is going to be very tight. I can either win overall or, maybe, come third. The details will be crucial, it will depend on how well I will sleep, relax and whether the course will suit me or not.Can you use any kind of strategy?I´m going to start off after Nibali so I will know his time checks but it is not so important.   I´m very motivated to do my best time trial. I have to go flat-out and not look back. I´m going to test ride the course in the morning. My confidence remains high and I´m really craving for the overall victory.6the stage (181 km): 1.
