Almost all the fine flower of the French amateur peloton will start from the Grand Prix de la Sologne des Etangs, the second round of the French Cup N1. On the top 10 runners of the amateur DV challenge only lack the call: the leader Matthew Fox (VC Rouen 76), Malo Stevant (Dinan Sport Cycling), 8th and victim of a fracture of the elbow at the Tour de Bretagne, and Artus Jaladeau, 10th because his club, the GSC Blagnac vs 31, which is in N2, did not make the trip.
Behind Matthew Fox, Alfred George rose to 2nd place in the DV challenge after his 9th position at the Rutland-Melton Cicle Classic (1.2) disputed in the jersey of Scotland. He has 284 points behind the Australian of the VC Rouen 76 and 18 in advance on Louis Hardouin, 3rd, also present at the departure of the Grand Prix of Sologne des Etangs. The member of the Chalett’s handlebar has 45 points ahead of Tom Mainguenaud (Mayenne-V and B-Monbana) and 78 on Mathias Sanlaville. The representative of the Attria-Montluçon Cycling Team is also the leader in the Hopes classification of the DV challenge.
VC Rouen 76 above 2000 points
If the SCO Dijon-Team Mattery-velo.com leads to the French Cup N1 in front of the VC Rouen 76, it is the opposite in the N1 classification of the DV challenge where the Conti Federal leads the dance. Thanks to the Tour de Bretagne where Ilan Larmet and Jean-Louis Le Ny reported big points and to Mattéo Viardot who pocketed the 50 points of the victory of the Brebières Grand Prix, the Norman club exceeds the ceiling of the 2000 points. The SCO Dijon-Team Materiel-velo.com follows nearly 800 points even if Antoine Berger, 7th, completes the presence of the club in the top 10 of the DV challenge.
Two other clubs are above the 1000 points: Mayenne-V and B-Monbana, 3rd, and the Attria-Montluçon Cyclisme, 4th. The ditch widens on the following clubs, the Olympic cycling Paris, the Chalettois and Dinan Sport Cycling handlebars. Classified 3rd in the French Cup after the Grand Prix of the Pays d’Aix, Hexagon-Corbas Lyon Métropole points to 12th place in the N1 classification of the DV challenge with 645 points.
Saturday, for this day race, 80 points will reward the victory, 70 for the 2nd, 60 for the 3rd, up to 1 point for the 30th. 80 points is barely less than the current gap between Louis Hardouin, 3rd and Antoine Raugel, 6th.
