Alexandre Geniez (FDJ) - Vuelta a Espana winner on stage 3
"I'm very happy. It's been a very difficult season with my crash in Italy. I've been working a lot and now I'm extremely happy. It's a big moment for me. It was close in the end but I got it."
"We knew we had a chance to stay away because it was a good breakaway. The peloton watched each other and waited too much and slowed. That gave us more time and more hope to pull it off."

"It was hard out there. It felt L'Alpe d'Huez at the beginning of the climb, the crowds were huge and everyone was yelling and cheering me on. It was a great atmosphere but it was difficult to focus. There's no climb like in France, it's very difficult to time your effort, you can't stay together, you've just got to go for it."
Ruben Fernandez (Movistar) - race leader
"I'm delighted to have the red jersey. We've been working so hard and I honestly didn't expect to have this jersey today. In the end we went for it and we got it.
