Julien Simon (Cofidis) again proved that Cofidis have no intention of hiding in the bunch after the loss of Nacer Bouhanni when he finished sixth in today's tough mountain stage at the Tour de France.
"I wanted to reassure myself today after a difficult day yesterday," he said. "I was able to join the right breakaway but I'm not a pure climber. When Majka attacked, I fought hard. I went up at my own pace and I caught Voeckler at the top of the Tourmalet. After that we knew that the peloton was getting closer so we worked together. We saved the places of honor. "
