Samuel Leroux has taken the win on stage 4 of Etoile de Besseges, his first professional victory, as the breakaway prevailed in France.
Coming into the final 10km, a group of five leaders, including best-placed Samuel Leroux at 1:16, Stefan Bissegger and Dries de Bondt, still held a narrow advantage over the peloton. With the time gap still at 1:25 at the foot of the final climb up to the line, things were looking positive for the breakaway.
As the lead group began to disintegrate with infighting, it was de Bondt and Jonas Iversby Hvideberg who attempted to power clear. When they began to ponder however, the remainder of the break regained contact and in the finale it was Samuel Leroux of Van Rysel - Roubaix who took the win ahead of Bissegger and de Bondt as a raging peloton neared.

- 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
