For the second time in this year's Tour de France, Dan Martin (Cannondale) had to settle for second place when he was beaten by a strong Rafal Majka in stage 11.
"To get another second place after Mûr de Bretagne is a good result, considering how far back I was from the breakaway when I counter attacked," he said. "I was weak at the wrong moment when Rafal Majka attacked in the Tourmalet. I just didn't have the legs to follow him at that time. I also had pretty bad legs at the start of the stage, so I took it easy and it was kind of a stupid moment when I decided to chase the breakaway down but I did. As a team we had to do something after what happened yesterday."
