This .Pro race, ridden over the dirt paths around Lannilis, concludes the series of 4 events raced in Britanny this week since Thursday (Boucles de l’Aulne, Tour du Finistère, Grand-Prix du Morbihan were the first 3).
It is often a fun and eventful race, given the randomness of riding over the non-paved sections; that usually ends in a sprint within a tiny group of riders.
The titleholder Arnaud De Lie shan’t be present, but the rest of last year’s podium shall be: Venturini (🇫🇷 Arkéa) finished 3rd twice this week already, and Gautherat (🇫🇷 Decathlon) takes his season up again with this complicated race, after a short break.
BTW, Decathlon won the last 3 breton races.
On Friday, Sparfel🇫🇷 won the Tour of Finistère (class .1). A rider from the development/Conti team! He just turned 19 a few days earlier. It was a surprise to see him winning a professional race before Seixas. Unfortunately, he fell on a urban part of the route today and abandoned.
On Saturday, on the Tour of Morbihan (class .Pro, should be downgraded to .1 in my opinion but anyway…), it was Cosnefroy🇫🇷.
And today Tronchon🇫🇷.
