‘I’m going for the win’ – Paul Seixas sets out his stall for Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes as Tour de France build-up intensifies

The hugely talented young French star Paul Seixas has flung down the gauntlet for the fast-upcoming Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and announced that he will be ‘looking for victory’.

Eighth overall in the same eight-day race last year, Seixas, 19, has not raced since Liège-Bastogne-Liége, where he was second behind Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG), and the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes will begin his final competitive countdown towards his widely anticipated debut in the Tour de France.
