The 2025 Critérium du Dauphiné serves as a farewell to Romain Bardet, a cycling icon, while introducing promising young riders like Lenny Martinez and Paul Seixas. 21-year-old Martinez leads the charge for Bahrain Victorious ahead of the Tour de France. Seixas, at only 18, has made significant strides since transitioning from junior cycling, with impressive placements in races like the UAE Tour and Tour of the Alps. His experience at altitude training in Sierra Nevada aims to bolster his performance in the Dauphiné, viewed as a strategic move for his career development.
Being there was another small step in my career. I've already taken a few, this was a new one, and the Dauphiné will be another one.
For the rest of my career, lining up there to gain experience was more interesting. We talked a lot. I thought I had something to achieve.
