Arnaud de Lie (Lotto) celebrated his third victory in September, and his seventh this year, at Paris-Chauny, outsprinting Max Kanter (XDS Astana) and Lukas Kubis (Unibet Tietema Rockets) in the 75th edition of the one-day 1.1 French men’s race.
As expected, the race came down to a sprint at the end of the 188km from Margny-lès-Compiègne to Chauny, a route marked by false flats and bumpy profile.
