Arnaud Démare: “the finale is quite tiring but we can imagine a sprint finish”

NewsMar 11, 2024

Winner of the Italian event in 2020, Arnaud Démare is once again aligned this season with the oldest professional cycling event.

Milan-Turin I only ran it once. It was 2020, and I had won. This will therefore be my second participation. The particularity of this event is that its route is slightly modified each year with either a flat route for the sprinters, or a more hilly one making it easier for the punchers-climbers. This season is between the two, with a rather tiring finale. We can still imagine a sprint finish, so I hope to find the opportunity in this event. It’s a great race, a lot of good sprinters compete when the course is favorable for them. There will be a high level and it will be an opportunity for the ARKEA-B&B HOTELS team and me to compete in a sprint.

Milan-Turin est une épreuve qui alterne entre tracé pour les sprinteurs et pour les grimpeurs puncheurs. Le parcours de cette année offre une sorte de mixte entre les deux, et le final de la course peut s’avérer usant. Nous aurons bien évidemment comme carte maîtresse en cas d’arrivée massive, Arnaud Démare qui s’est déjà imposé sur cette compétition. Mais nous pourrons également jouer la carte puncheur-grimpeur si une course de mouvement venait à prendre corps dans le final, avec notamment, Louis Barré.
