Demi Vollering’s win at Strade Bianche was not only a big personal victory for the Dutch rider, but also a real confirmation that the team FDJ-Suez have built around their marquee signing is working well.
The race on Saturday saw Vollering win not just on pure strength. It was also a result of dedicated teamwork from Juliette Labous and Évita Muzic to shut down the efforts both of their biggest rivals, and of teams that up until recently would get the better of the French squad.
