**Aiming for a Stage Win at Paris-Nice: Arnaud Gérard and Team ARKEA-B&B HOTELS Strategy**
In the upcoming 2024 edition of Paris-Nice, Team ARKEA-B&B HOTELS is strategizing for success with a focus on aiming for a stage win. Arnaud Gérard, the team’s key player, will be supported by a strong lineup including Donavan Grondin and Miles Scotson, who is described as his pilot-fish and knows him “like the back of his hand.”
According to Gérard, the team’s aim is clear: “The aim is to try and win a stage, either with Arnaud, or with our two climber-puncher riders, Ewen Costiou and Clément Champoussin.” This sets the tone for a competitive spirit within the team, with Paris-Nice being a pivotal event for Ewen Costiou. Gérard acknowledges the challenging nature of the race, stating, “Paris-Nice will be a milestone in Ewen’s career. It’s the first major cycling event of the year, and the weather conditions can also make the race extremely difficult.”
With a mix of experienced riders and promising talents on their roster, Team ARKEA-B&B HOTELS enters Paris-Nice with a clear goal in mind. As the race unfolds in two distinct parts, the team’s strategy revolves around leveraging their strengths to secure a victory. And with the determination and support from their skilled riders, the pursuit of a stage win remains a top priority.
