Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale's rising star Paul Seixas finished the biggest race of his career to date, last week's Critérium du Dauphiné, with an eighth-place overall finish, beating the likes of Carlos Rodríguez (Ineos Grenadiers), Guillaume Martin (Groupama-FDJ), and Sepp Kuss (Visma-Lease a Bike) in the final standings.
However, unlike many of the riders surrounding the Frenchman at the top of the general classification, Seixas won't be heading to the Tour de France next month.
