Eschborn-Frankfurt | Nacer Bouhanni - the best chance for Team Arkéa Samsic
CyclingMonday, 01 May 2023 at 08:30
Team Arkéa Samsic are missing a clear leader for upcoming Eschborn-Frankfurt. One name that stands out is the one of Nacer Bouhanni, but is he prepared to take on the likes of Jasper Philipsen or Sam Bennett?
30-year old's 2022 season was abruprtly terminated after a naughty collision with spectator in stage two of Presidential Cycling Tour of Türkiye. His highly anticipated return to competition in January was relatively silent, although Milano-Torino's 6th spot in bunch sprint is a promise for better days to come.
French team will have multiple options for a final sprint besides Bouhanni. Jenthe Biermans is having great season that includes win at hilly Muscat Classic meanwhile Hugo Hofstetter was Arkéa's key rider in last year's hunt for UCI points and is well suited to this race. Matis Louvel would also be an interesting outsider, whilst the team is completed by Laurent Pichon, Alan Riou and Clément Russo.
Team Arkéa Samsic for Eschborn-Frankfurt: Nacer Bouhanni, Jenthe Biermans, Hugo Hofstetter, Matis Louvel, Laurent Pichon, Alan Riou and Clément Russo.

- Just making the note that it’s actually closer to 120 because most of it is consumed in the first 4 hrs, not evenly across 5 hrs up until the finish.crharnishphd04-12-2025

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
