La 7e étape de ce Critérium du Dauphiné, très attendue par les coureurs depuis le début de la semaine, s’est déroulée ce samedi. Trois cols hors catégorie étaient au menu : la Madeleine (24,7 km à 6,1 %), la Croix de Fer (22,4 km à 7 %) et Valmenier 1800 (16,2 km à 6,8 %). Près de 5000 m de dénivelé et trois passages au-dessus des 1800 m : un vrai chantier... qui a vu s'imposer Tadej Pogacar ! Intouchable, le Slovène de la formation UAE Team Emirates XRG a une nouvelle fois mis un sacré coup à tous ses adversaires, en attaquant à 12 kilomètres de l'arrivée, relégant son dauphin Jonas Vingegaard (Visma | Lease a Bike) à une dizaine de secondes, sans donner l'impression d'avoir forcé.

00:00And
00:17Florian tell us about that data about the dynamic because first thing it was the attack of victor
00:22Yeah, I mean, yeah, it was a really really hard day again
00:30Yeah, we tried to be a bit conservative at the start of the race
00:36Yeah, just be always there but never yeah a take or something and wait until the last climb and
00:43yeah, I tried when poogie went
00:45to follow Jonas but yeah, I knew really quick that I will explode if I go a bit longer and
00:54then I tried to pace myself and yeah, it was still a super hard to the finish and I was more than happy
01:00when I was here in the finish, yeah
01:02Yeah, because at the end of the day after such a hard stage
01:05you delivered a really great performance. Did you impress yourself today?
01:09Yeah, I mean again, I
01:11I'm super happy with the performance and before the stage I I know that yeah with the days before I
01:18I'm in a good shape, but yeah being there again on the third place makes me super super happy
01:25For another great performance, but I don't think you enjoyed the last three kilometers, did you?
01:29No, it was yeah, it was really hard. I
01:32I was hoping that the finish is sooner, but yeah, I was completely on the limit
01:39Last year at the Vuelta we saw you ride with Primoz. We expect you to be riding with Primoz again at the Tour de France
01:44How do you think the roles are going to work out? Do you think you'll be co-leader just helping Primoz?
01:48How do you think it's going to work?
01:50Yeah, I mean the plan is to help him
01:53He's still the big leader and I think he showed in the past that
01:57Yeah, he's super strong also three weeks. He can race super well
02:01So yeah, my main goal will be to help him in the climbs and yeah, I think I showed here that I'm in good shape and
02:08Maybe make a difference also
02:12Thank you
