Arnaud de Lie's first World Tour victory.Arnaud de Lie's first World Tour victory.It was with (over)power that the Belgian nugget from the Lotto-Dstny team sprinted through the streets of Quebec.

Stage 11: Puncher victory for Jesus Herrada (COFIDIS)!The Ekoï VueltaIf it was necessary to be solid to hold on to the long breakaway of the day (26 fugitives at the front on a unbridled pace over 100 km), everything really came down to the only difficulty of this eleventh stage... On the ascent of Laguna Negra (6.5 kms at 6.8%, 11% for the final), the surviving climbers competed for victory on the pedal. In this little game, experience has won. Herrada first stalled before exiting in the last 300 meters. A well-chosen moment to carry, like a puncher, a frank, robust and unstoppable attack. At 33, Jesus expands his record on the Vuelta with a third success (2019.2022) and allows his team to triumph for the third time this year on a Grand Tour. Tomorrow, the Spanish rider will wear the distinctive white jersey with blue polka dots of the Mountain. Note the third place of the winner of the 2nd stage Andréas Kron (Lotto-Dstny) and the team classification of the Spanish formation Burgos BH with three riders in the top 20.Show me more

Andreas Kron (Lotto-Dstny) wins to everyone's surprise on the 2nd stage of the VueltaWith an Ekoï AR14 helmet and Ekoï Premium glassesAfter a very contested inaugural time trial due to the lack of light, the weather conditions and the final route of the day prompted the riders and the organizers not to take the times at the finish but 9km from the line, before the ascent and especially the descent of Montjuïc. The start of the race was marked by a breakaway of 5 men in which appeared Bol, rider of Burgos BH. As the final approached, falls followed one another and the great leaders of the general classification got up again after the famous passage to 9 kilometers. Only about twenty kamikazes are therefore playing a prestigious victory in the capital of Catalonia. In the steepest slopes of the difficulty of the day, a real justice of the peace, we first witness an attack by Remy Rochas (Cofidis) who aborts a mouse but allows Andreas Kron to counter and isolate himself just before the swing. Despite a soggy surface and the accumulation of dead leaves that had fallen due to the driving rain, he managed to keep a precious lead and take a memorable victory just a stone's throw from the 1992 Olympic Stadium. A victory in the form of a tribute after the death in training of his young teammate Tijl De Becker: "This one is for you, Tijl!" Photo credit: Photo News / Getty ImagesShow me more

Jasper de Buyst (Lotto Dstny) flashed at high speed on the Egmont Cycling RaceWith an Ekoï AR14 helmet and Ekoï Premium glassesEven if they are not part of the classics or monuments, some races have a special flavor for the runners. Such is the case of the Egmont Cycling Race for Jasper de Buyst... The 193.5 kilometer route ending in Zottegem largely uses its training roads. The Belgian sprinter thus knows every corner of the course but also the pitfalls to avoid during the various hills and cobbled sections. The nervous race was finally played out in a sprint in a restricted committee. A few kilometers from the finish, Arjen Livyns did a lot of work at the front of the peloton to come back to a rider who had escaped and allow his teammate to compete for his chances. At 300 meters, Jasper already starts his sprint... He manages to keep a substantial lead on the line despite the lactic acid paralyzing his legs. The marshals will however use the photo finish to decide between the two riders and will designate him as the winner. A second success for the Lotto-Dstny rider in this event after 2017.Show me more
