Good result to restart activity for Ulloa.

 

Not surprised to see him take this race, as he used to train in that same venue in this season when he competed asa junior and U23 rider.

So Evie Richards winning her top-level debut, Ulloa winning the men's race...curious what today will bring, the first big races of the very short season, the women are coming up now.

among the girls, basically it was a French championship, with 3 of their women in the top 4 places (only exception, a good 2nd place for Terpstra)...

 

nice to see the young rising star Laura Stigger already competitive at the senior level with an excellent 5th place...

Where were all the stars? Neff, Włosczowska, Langvad, Bresset, Lechner, Žakelj, Belomoina, Rissveds - all out of top ten.

I think these results were heavily influenced by the chance of having regular training sessions during the last months...

 

the Italian riders, for instance, had to take a long break and surely they're not in top shape right now...hopefully they'll be more competitive when the world champs come...

 

France never took serious measures against covid (and we all see that with their current numbers of daily new cases and deceased people) and their athletes had more chances to keep on training all Spring and Summer long, so now they're in better shape than anybody else...

 

p.s. by the way, an Italian girl won (surprisingly, I must say) the U-23 race...little consolation, at least...

Ulloa out 

 

Hope it’a nothing serious so he can be back for World Championships
