Thibaud Guel's career is well launched. A year ago, he was preparing to alternate the tests with the Conti and the WorldTeam of Groupama-FDJ before a final passage on January 1, 2025 among the Great. It was finally from March that he made the jump. “There have been many unexpected twists and turns. I told myself that it was going to save me time. I was able to learn faster than expected. It didn't scare me, I saw it as a chance ”. He knew how to grasp it very quickly. “I did some good results, even in WorldTour. I did not expect to run these races and I was able to do top 10, Romandie's turn and in Plouay. I quickly progressed (See your Directvelo sheet) ”, He appreciates with Directivebefore launching its 2025 season this Sunday at the Valence Grand Prix.
The 20 -year -old estimates to have “Lucky” to be quite complete on the bike. “It is a quality that I must succeed in keeping. Where I feel best, it is on efforts for the Punchers ”. And that's good, many races correspond to this quality. He has a preference for Flander classics. “These are the races that make me dream. I have already done some paved mountains, I felt comfortable, I like that. These are efforts that suit me well. It is also the ones I prefer to watch on television, there are always lots of twists and turns. There is also the Belgian atmosphere, very famous. All that gathered makes it really make you want ”.
But he will have to wait to play these tests. The runner from Indre-et-Loire had asked his team to be aligned this year on a few Flanders, but she chose another calendar for spring. “After Paris-Nice and until mid-May, the team prefers that I do a lot of French Cup sleeves to play the win”. Which is not to displease him. “I have other races to compete to learn and arrive on the classics more ready next season, I hope. A tour of Flanders, I know it's not nothing, it's long, super hard. I do not pretend to say that I will be at the level of our leaders ”. In view of his 2024 season, he seems to be off to get closer to it fairly quickly.
