Rod Ellingworth: "We're not here just to follow"

Talking to TV, Bahrain-McLaren's tram manager Rod Ellingworth warned this morning of what's happening right now: “Obviously, we're not going to just follow. We've come here to – the objective is to make the podium, so we still feel, despite our time loss on Stage 7, that we can still achieve that. So I think there are obviously 3 critical stages now. I don't think it's just about today, certainly the guys are up for it, and Mikel's feeling good today. And excited to race. I'm not sure it'll be the final decisive day, but it'll certainly mix things up today. We've got plans. At the end of the day, if Visma have that dominance of just riding like they are, then it's really tough. They've got a super strong team, so fair play to them. They've assembled a great team and they're doing a great performance so far. But the guys aren't just going to sit there and wait. I think they're going to try something.”
