Antonio PEDRERO (ESP/MOVISTAR TEAM) wins Stage 3 at Le Mourtis: “I'm so, so happy with this victory. Occitanie had always been a race that I liked, ever since I came here alongside team leaders a few years ago, to support them - and being able to come here this year and take this first victory makes me so happy. It was my first stagerace since the Giro, which was really demanding for me, yet left me some good legs. During the stage, I didn't feel as good as I could expect: sometimes it went well, sometimes I wasn't where I wanted. However, halfway through the final climb, Gregor (Mühlberger) and I were into that final selection, I asked him to pick up the pace and I could take advantage to attack and reach the finish line. Defending this jersey? We'll of course try! Let's see how we plan that final stage to bring it home. I don't think I've climbed to the finish, but when I suffer tomorrow I'll probably recall that feeling (laughs)”.		share this photo
