Questions to professional cyclist Lennard Kämna after his drive to second place in the Tour de France.
Question: You just missed out on the yellow jersey. Do you understand that Tadej Pogacar sprinted another few seconds at the end?
Lennard Kämna: In the end it’s sport. We don’t give each other gifts. We’re all fighting for stage wins and the yellow jersey. I don’t expect anyone to give me anything. Especially not the yellow jersey. You gave me a lot of minutes. I had my chance. I just didn’t use them.
Do you have any hope of getting another chance?
Kämna: I am now second overall. I do not give up. I’ll definitely have to fight a bit now because the day cost a lot of energy. I’ll try to stay tuned for as long as possible.
Will you run away again on Wednesday?
Kamna: Absolutely not. It took so much strength to get into this group. I have to make sure I can keep up.
And on Thursday to Alpe d’Huez?
Kämna: That depends. Maybe give me 20 minutes. Then I would have a chance.
