National Championships 2026 โ France ๐ซ๐ท โ Individual Time Trial ME – Aoste – La Tour-du-Pin : 29,7 km
The French National Road Race Championship is a cycling race where the French cyclists decide who will become the champion for the year to come. The winners of each event are awarded with a symbolic cycling jersey which is blue, white and red, just like the national flag, these colours can be worn by the rider at other road racing events in the country to show their status as national champion. The champion’s stripes can be combined into a sponsored rider’s team kit design for this purpose
Rรฉmi Cavagna (Groupama-FDJ United) came out on top in the time trial at the French National Championships for the first time in three years on Thursday, beating Bruno Armirail (Visma-Lease a Bike) to the title.
Cavagna and Armirail have been trading blows in the French TT for the last several years, winning the six previous editions between them โ three for Armirail, and now three for Cavagna.
Armirail started the day as favourite given he’s the defending champion from 2025 and 2024, but he couldn’t hold off Cavagna this time as the Groupama rider put a 49-second gap into his rival. He completed the 29.7km course in 36:55 for an average speed of 48.3 kph.
Third went to Ewen Costiou (Groupama-FDJ United) who finished 1:03 down on his teammate, and in fact Groupama riders finished in fourth and seventh too, such is their numerical advantage at the French Championships.
Championship racing continues in southeastern France on the weekend with the elite road races.
