He has been the rider everyone has been talking about in recent days, and that's Paul Seixas. The future of French cycling, who will race Liège-Bastogne-Liège tomorrow against the strongest riders in the world.
Like Pogacar and Evenepoel, Paul Seixas has also won Liège-Bastogne-Liège: in 2024, as a junior, at just 17 years old. In his first season as a professional, tomorrow the Frenchman from Decathlon makes his debut with ambitions in the Doyenne, the oldest classic (first edition 1892): he has already achieved 7 victories this season, matching only Evenepoel. "I can't wait to start tomorrow - said the 19-year-old talent, who dominated the Flèche Wallonne on Wednesday - I hope everything goes well and I have an excellent team that will support me".
Seixas watched this race on television and admired those riders, against whom he will now have to measure himself. "The duel with Tadej and Remco? Liège is a good test to face them. Tadej is the best rider of all time, you just have to look at his results to understand what he's capable of. Being able to compete against him is great. We'll see what happens. In any case, I always start to win".
