“There isn’t much fun left in the eating, it is just a source of food. But I’m totally fixated on the positions, completely addicted, even. I’m waiting for the next rankings like a kid waiting for Santa Claus. I look at the positions of the others, trying to find out how to get closer to them. I’ve never experienced this pleasure, especially not four years ago, maybe a little bit at the beginning of the race this year. I count the miles that separate me from Thomas and Damien, I check their course… Apart from that, I listen to podcasts, notably Historiquement Votre Yours, on Europe, I have finished almost all the Affaires Sensibles. There is the full works of Brassens left to listen to and then lots of messages from the family, children, Servane, friends. And all the press articles which I receive daily.”
