‘The race radio’s all in Spanish’ – France’s Rémi Cavagna hits language barrier after move to Movistar

French time trialist and Classics rider Rémi Cavagna has said that a language barrier and sudden changes in his race programme are partly to blame for his lacklustre first half of the 2024 season after his move to Movistar.

Cavagna, 28, joined the longstanding Spanish WorldTour team after seven seasons with the QuickStep Belgian squad but has had below-expectations results in his races through to mid-June.
