It has taken Michael Matthews just two races to get his first victory of 2024. The Australian star triumphed on Sunday afternoon at the Gran Premio Castellón.
"My legs were really good today," admitted the 33-year-old post-race in conversation with the social media of his Team Jayco AlUla, having sprinted to victory ahead of the likes of Pierre Gautherat and Alex Aranburu in Spain.
Just one day prior, Matthews had been a key cog in helping teammate Dylan Groenewegen open his account for 2024 at the Clàssica Comunitat Valenciana. "For me, yesterday was harder than today," Matthews admits.
"But my team did amazing. We rode our race, we rode the way wanted to win the race, we took control and yeah, I was able to sprint to the line like I've shown that I can in the past. A nice way to start the season!"

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
