Arkéa - B&B Hotels need every help they can get to try and save their World Tour license and in all honesty, the team's very future. It is then a very important week for the team as Kévin Vauquelin wins the final stage of the Etoile de Bessèges in another dominant display of power and also seals the overall win.

The Frenchman was the favourite to win the final stage, the 10-kilometer time-trial in Alès which finished atop a small ascent. In 2024 he was already the victor here and this year his triumph was even more comfortable. After most of the peloton left the race, the Frenchman conquered the queen stage to Mont Bouquet comfortably, and today he won the final stage of the race with a 19-second lead over Rémi Cavagna, whilst Dylan Teuns rode to third place on the day.
