Clément Venturini

«An enormous satisfaction»

«It is a tremendous satisfaction to win my fifth French championship title, the fourth with the AG2R CITROËN team.
I've struggled a bit these past few weeks with a difficult programme. It was intentional, to challenge myself against the strongest competitors and make more progress, and it paid off today.

Fabien (Doubey) was very strong, but I didn't give up until the very end. I used my strengths in the physical aspects of the game to prevail.
The main thing was to win, both for me and for the team. I'm very happy to see the blue, white and red colours back on the shirt. January is shaping up to be a good month.»

I used my strengths in the physical aspects to assert myself.
