Vincenzo Albanese, 6th on the Franco-Belgian circuit

The race was hectic, and we opted for a sprint to protect Vincenzo Albanese, Florian Sénéchal and Amaury Capiot. It all came down to the pedal on the last climb, so there’s nothing to regret. Vincenzo finally finished in 6th place, ahead of Florian Sénéchal and Amaury. I saw good teamwork from the ARKEA-B&B HOTELS team, in particular from Florian Dauphin and Matis Louvel, who did well for their sprinters on the last lap.
