After this windy and stormy day today it was unfortunately only enough for fifth place, although I think that more than top five would have been possible. I opened the sprint in a headwind and you probably saw the rest. Thanks to my team, which again today sacrificed itself for me. We grabbed the initiative and the spirit is good. That is worth a lot.

I was very happy about the "Le Tour Chocolate" from Erfurt which arrived today for me and the team. My manager brought it. I created this chocolate with the chocolate manufacturer Goldheim. Chocolate makes you happy, and somehow that fits for today. And we can use this kid of food for our nerve and the extra calories for tomorrow’s hard stage.
