"I was able to maintain a good pace throughout the special (following in the footsteps of the previous pilots, editor’s note). In the end the differences are not important but it is good to be in the front group. the moment we drive like that while waiting for the continuation with the stages which involve more complications at the navigation level ".

"I rode very carefully because in the mountains there can be serious consequences in the event of an error", explains the rider, faithful to his Nîmes motorcycle. "Despite everything, I caught up with those who were in front of me at the end, in the last kilometers, and we finished together. I’m glad it started like this. Nevertheless, I think the supposed leaders are waiting for the big ones. They will start to emerge from tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, "concludes Alain Duclos wisely..
