Peterhansel daarentegen blijft kalm.
Quote:
Stéphane Peterhansel (FR. – Mistubishi – 14th)
“We have had a difficult day… A little mistake and we found ourselves behind the others, in the dust. It has been difficult to catch them up. But nothing dramatic. Actually, we are exactly in the same position as last year. It is true that it is not good to be a few minutes adrift. But we will fill this gap, and out-distance our opponents. It is true that things are getting a bit more difficult, but we have to stay cool anyway.”
