An individual time trial was on the schedule for the 3rd stage of the 4 Days of Dunkirk. A difficult exercise in which the Team Nice Métropole Côte d’Azur was unable to stand out.
It was in Saint-Quentin and its surroundings that the 3rd stage of these 4 Days of Dunkirk took place. On a 19.5 km course, the riders tackled the solitary challenge. Notably, it had been 14 years since a time trial was held in this event. A time trial without significant elevation but quite technical in its final part. Against the time trial specialists, the Team Nice Métropole Côte d’Azur didn’t put up a fight. Far behind the winner Benjamin Thomas (Cofidis), the highest-ranked Aiglon was Andrea Mifsud (92nd at 1’57″).
Tomorrow, the cobblestones await for the 4th stage starting from Maubeuge, with the hope of seeing an Aiglon at the forefront.
Ranking of Team Nice Métropole Côte d’Azur:
92nd Andrea Mifsud at 1’57”
