Schleck denies that he was shifting at the time... says it's just a "scheisse happens" kind of thing.

De todos modos, el luxemburgués ha descartado que la salida de cadena fuese motivada por un error suyo en el cambio sino que se debió "a la mala suerte". "He visto las imágenes varias veces, no hice nada y no volverá a pasar. El problema está solucionado", ha recalcado.
