After catching Covid, Arnaud Démare has had to postpone his return to school. The French sprinter (Groupama-FDJ) will start his season well on Monday, at the Tour of the United Arab Emirates.

It’s time to resume, at the start of the 2023 season. From Monday 20 February until next Sunday 26 February, French runner Arnaud Demare, resident of Groupama-FDJ tricolor cycling training, will officially return to the peloton and thus take part in the fifth edition of the UAE Tour United Arab Emirates, along with the United Arab Emirates. The former French champion, who is still nine wins away from reaching a particularly impressive hundred career success total, is part of his squad selection, along with compatriot Clement Davey, Lithuanian Ignatas Konovalovas, New Zealander Lawrence Bethe and Australian Robin Thompson Michael Storer. Not forgetting the Dutchman Bram Wilton. All these great people will be supervised by a total of two sporting directors, Sebastien Joly and Jussi Vikanen. The runner was forced to postpone his return, due to Covid, which he was struggling to recover from.

“I don’t really know where to put myself in my looks”

Thus, the main interested party had to ignore the Algarve round, which took place between Wednesday 15 February and Sunday 19 February. Demare is now 31 years old, and he intends to take part in this seven-stage World Tour race. Before fighting him, the Frenchman expressed himself, in comments reported by the specialized site Cyclism’actu: “This start to the season was unfortunately turned upside down with the cancellation of the Antalya Tour, and then some health problems. We did not allow that. I will resume in the Algarve Tour, I had to adapt and now my eyes are on UAE Tour I don’t really know where to put myself in my form Covid has affected me a lot In training this week I gradually got my feelings back it’s been getting better day by day The UAE Tour is seven days of racing including a team time trial Which will play on the cohesion of the team and that will put everyone in the same intensity, I will have a lot of fit for my teammates around me and I will use that to get the best result with the form of the moment.”
