I can't thank them enough, they have ridden brilliantly all week, and I wouldn't have won without them
I think I can fight for a top result. It is clear that many [time] trial kilometers favors Bradley Wiggins and Cadel Evans.
It was a true test of a GC (general classification) rider. It had a bit of everything
Lieuwe is, in this moment, one of the best climbers in this race and two days ago he was better than Bradley Wiggins on the climb
I think it's payment for the hard work I've put in ... I've really grafted this winter and hopefully there's more to come.
It’s really nice to finish it off in a time trial on the last day for the boys
I want to win Romandy, that’s for sure ... I’ll take what I can every day and it’s really nice to win a sprint like this because normally I only ever really win time trials.
I had a lot of adrenaline after I punctured with 25km to go
You can't worry too much about if he's there ... you just concentrate on what you're doing as a team and individually
It's more about freshness. If you're not fresh, your time trial abilities count for nothing
I finished fourth in the Tour (in 2009), I won the Dauphine (in 2011) and now the Paris-Nice, so I’m among the best
Even if Paris to Nice was a target, I'm probably at 95 percent form-wise, and I can get better
We have a plan with my training team. The plan took off on November 1, in order to hit the peak in July. Paris to Nice was part of that plan
This was massive. I'm thinking of the record of Simpson, my cycling idol. It's like Bobby Moore for football fans

That was bloody close ... After Mende, we knew he would be good again today. I had to give everything I had to beat him.
I know the history of cycling - it's a massive thing for me ... It's an historic race, and it's an honor for me to join my idol Tom Simpson on the Paris-Nice list.
I don't know if I'm a favourite but I'm one of maybe five riders who can do something there (overall) this summer
It’s f—ing enormous ... To follow in the footsteps of Tom Simpson and everyone else that’s on that list — Merckx, Hinault, Indurain — it’s a massive thing. To put my name on that list is an absolute honor.

I had a fright, he won at Mende so I knew he had the legs
It was a very tough final time trial and I knew that Westra was very strong after he’d won that stage midweek
I said Paris-Nice was a stepping stone, no disrespect for Paris-Nice
