Career

[edit]

He won the first stage of the 2021 Critérium du Dauphiné with an impressive solo attack in which he held off the peloton. On stage 4 of 2021 Tour de France attacked as soon as 'the race is on' was declared ten kilometers into the stage. He and Pierre-Luc Périchon were the only two breakaway riders and the pair stayed away all day.
