Arnaud De Lie has taken his first WorldTour victory, by successful the Grand Prix Québec in spectacular vogue.
Despite varied assaults in the long run, the GP Québec was determined in a gaggle dash and it was Arnaud De Lie who confirmed the strongest. Corbin Strong completed second, Michael Matthews accomplished the rostrum.
“I tried to save as much energy until the final sprint, that was crucial today”, mentioned De Lie. “As this is only my first time racing GP Québec, I’ve watched the past editions many times and it learned me a lot”.
“We rode the perfect race with the team, but I was a bit far towards the final sprint. Luckily I still had two teammates left who brought me up. I had to launch early and had some work to do but I could take a good speed and held it to the line. To beat riders such as Corbin Strong and Michael Matthews on finishes like these is not easy. So I’m over the moon with this first victory on WorldTour level.”
What a dash!
