Ben Healy: 18km solo win and is the new leader before the TT
“We had two cards to play with me and Richard (Carapaz) and going long for me is my strength and then we could use Richard behind if I got caught back. I just had the legs today to make it stick so Richard didn’t have to do anything. I don’t think anyone will ever admit to liking these stages. The rain is never nice to ride in, but for sure I perform well in the rain and it doesn’t slow me down. Now it’s just trying to hold onto this jersey and I’m confident in my TT and now I have a nice buffer as well going into tomorrow and we have a strong team to look after the jersey if I keep it tomorrow for the last stage as well, so I’m pretty confident.”
