Cycling. 41st Sebacco Cup: New Zealand’s Skilled Wilson – Cycling – News, Stage Info, Live Race Results
Spaco Cup, in Ergué-Gabéric
He arrived at the end of April in Pisni, and it was on the Sebacco Cup that New Zealander Finn Wilson won his first victory in Europe. Powerfully, cyclist Christophe Dennis sprinted 12 km from the finish to take the solo win and do a double-whammy with his second stage win in the standings and general classification.
Eliot Boulet wins the time trial
In the morning time trial, Brittany’s champion in the discipline, Eliot Boullet (CC Blanquette), won. “It’s my fifth victory this season, and it’s still very timely. But it’s also the third time I’ve lost a general classification after winning the time trial,” says the rider, who is very disappointed with his race in line. “I had to make a lot of effort before entering the final circuit and I paid for it, only my colleague Pierre-Adrien Peer helped me.”
It is an assembled peloton that presented itself in Vallée Blanche as the selection was made from behind. There were some great attacks, notably that of Pierre Couronne (Ver), but the decisive blow came from Wilson, third in the time trial at 12′. Coming out with 10km to go, he quickly made a 30-inch sweep to slip out of his reach and win the Sebaco 41.
In the footsteps of Robin Thompson
Following the example of his compatriot and friend Robin Thompson (Groupama-FDJ), he came to France to become a professional. “When I saw the peloton shrinking on the laps, I decided to go for it. This is a great victory for me. I hope to make myself known in France and get a contract next year,” the ambitious Kiwi stated after his victory.
