Peter Sagan says the Rainbow Jersey, which comes with being World Champion wont change him as a person or a rider and that he knows he has to train just as hard as before to win big races.
"It’s not about the rainbow jersey or not. It’s not like you have this t-shirt and you are stronger," Sagan told reporters at the official presentation of the 2016 Giro d’Italia in Milan.
"You have to keep training, keep sacrificing your life, and after you can be good. For sure I am proud of this jersey, I can wear it and also I’m very happy with the race. But I will keep fighting for the best results that I can do."
Sagan will end his season at the Abu Dhabi Tour, where he will look to win for the first time in his Rainbow Jersey.
