Victoire d’Anthony Perez devant Lewis Askey !!!! Ferron repris aux 100M #Classic44
It is the second win in three days for Cofidis as they take another one-day race in French territory. Anthony Perez had been for a long time a relatively absent figure in the peloton but has today shown another glimpse of brilliancy by winning the reduced group sprint at the French race.
The 182 kilometer race saw a hilly 14.5 kilometer circuit that was ridden around a dozen times and forced a sequence of leg-smashing efforts. It was a race suited to the puncheurs, and the race result was evident of that exactly as a 14-rider group went clear of the peloton with less than two laps to go. No-one managed to make the difference from it, and the race headed for a final sprint, with the likes of Clement Venturini and Matis Louvel as big favourites.
The win however smiled to Cofidis as Anthony Perez outsprinted his rivals for a strong win, his first in over two years. He beat Groupama - FDJ's Lewis Askey and Arkéa Samsic's Matis Louvel who rounded out the podium.

- 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
