I had a long time in the hot seat (race lead), and I did kind of hope to hold on. But I'm just happy to be up here with Joane and Karin. I look up to both of them.
I'm very pleased with my performance and being up there with Karin and Joane, both of whom I look up to is great. I hope to be in their seats in future years.
It was going to be somebody's day, and I knew that one of us was going to have that day. We're all really strong riders and we're all really fit, but to have that podium ride or world championship everything has to come together.
Hopefully I'll be up here again in a better position in the coming years.
