Florian Sénéchal will start the season working in Arnaud Demare's train, before taking on a leadership role in the Flemish classics and semi-classics at the start of the year.
"Sénéchal must assert himself as leader of the Arkéa - B&B Hotels team. A role that he rightly claims, on the semi-classics and cobbled classics at the start of the season, notably Paris-Roubaix which is his favorite race. This is where, to tell the truth, we expect him at a very high level," says sports director Dider Rous.
