Evita Muzic finished third in Mont Ventoux Dénivelé Challenges Femmes, 53 seconds behind her teammate and winner Marta Cavalli. It was a perfect day for FDJ Nouvelle-Aquitaine Futuroscope, and the French explained.
"It was a bit of a perfect day today for the team, with a win, a podium and working together throughout the race. I think we had a perfect team race... the girls rode as hard as they could all the way up the climb, doing a perfect job of dropping Marta in the best conditions. I knew very well that she was the best in the race and I had a lot of confidence in her to go for the win," Muzic admited in a post-race interview.
On the slopes of Mont Ventoux there was no place to hide, and as soon as Cavalli went up the road there was nothing to be done. "Once she attacked, it was every rider for himself, I preferred to manage my climb... I am happy with this performance, and to be able to finish on the podium with my blue, white, and red jersey that I will soon put back in play at the French championships.” she concluded.

- Nothing revelatory or controversial. Why do we have to report on Bruyneel's or Armstrong's thinking. It's a shame and enough that the Move's on TV and that people watch it .flyer14-11-2026
- Makes sense that training from home is a big asset or advantage but it's still remarkable that he can put in three quality majors and not pay some heavy price for the exertion. I wish he would have won that tour stage that his crash while leading allowed Carapaz the win. He's a darn good rider and teammate.flyer14-11-2026
- Sounds like we all agree with the over under exaggeration: "The German’s signing does not guarantee that Evenepoel will win the Tour in 2027. "flyer14-11-2026
- Seixas appears to be that good but if he isn't (an absolute rival to Pogacar) he would have plenty of company in rising stars that did not go on to fully meet the expectations of many. That Pogacar wasn't the greatest (as great) sooner can't be transposed onto another's development. It may be not that simple.flyer14-11-2026
- I agree that, for Evenepoel, the Euro championship is overshadowed by the slightly off Lombardia and Worlds. However, I disagree that "Ciccone also made a serious mistake at the European Championships" because I don't think he had a win in the bag although he could have won with a perfect bike throw. Guesswork about the finish is not evidence by me for some serious mistake. Sometimes you just barely lose - although Ciccone's sourpuss about it persona was serious.flyer14-11-2026

- Skipping the 2027 TDF would be fine in my opinion, and if so, it further reveals that him racing it in 2026 was a good decision. Seixas speaks confident, almost cocky, these days (not meant to be a criticism) and I find it a tad humorous that people (rather commentators) continually chide and advise on how Decathlon should direct and manage Seixas when Paul seems to be calling all his shots since well before this year's TDF.flyer14-11-2026
- Well I just watched this and I thought it was great! If you’re a Pogi fan, like me, you’ll enjoy it. Even if you’re not necessarily a Pogi fan I still recommend it. There’s plenty of new stuff I didn’t know about and I’m a Pogi-maniac! Nice interviews with Pogi & Matteo Trentin too.Lozza14-11-2026
