Chris Froome (Team Sky) - new race leader
It's a great surprise but I think it's the result of a lot of hard work today from my teammates as well. They did a fantastic job on the final climb. Especially a guy like Gianni Moscon – it's his first Grand Tour with Team Sky. He was great today, as were the rest of the guys.
(Was it your plan to fight for intermediates?) I've lost a Vuelta before by 13 seconds so I'm going to fight for every second I can at this point.

(How does it feel to be back in red?) It's been a long time. It feels amazing to put it back on and to be in this position. It's something I've thought about for a long time and obviously I worked hard to be here after the Tour, so I'm really happy to be in this position.
(Can you hold onto red all the way through to the end?) It's going to be really hard, especially with all the time bonuses out there, and there are still only two seconds to the next group of riders. So it's still really close. I don't expect to keep it all the way until the end but I'm certainly going to fight for it.
