Groupama-FDJ continues to re-build its roster with three new signings

Roster of Groupama-FDJ continues to develop in the direction set last winter. Marc Madiot surprised everyone by promoting not less than eight riders from development team straight to World Tour.

Next big step into unknown was recent departure of the French team's long-time sprinting leader Arnaud Démare. Many would've expect that Madiot uses the extra money to sign another big name, but that's not the plan.

Groupama-FDJ will instead focus on its current leader David Gaudu while building a team around talented youngster like Lenny Martinez and Romain Grégoire.

The team's latest additions; Rémy Rochas, Sven Erik Bystrom and Clément Russo are all quality riders who are valuable teammates in biggest races, while they can go for a result themselves when an opportunity presents itself.
