Jeune, Fort, et Francais FW26-7

I apologize if the French is wrong in the title. Translated, I hope it reads as "Young, Strong, and French". Paul Seixas (Decathlon CMA CGM) jumps free of the peloton claiming victory in Fleche Wallonne atop the Mur de Huy by three seconds over the rest of the peloton. With this win he becomes the youngest male cyclist to win at the tender age of nineteen! Behind him are Mauro Schmid (Jayco-Alula) and Ben Tulett (Visma-Lease a Bike) respectively finishing out the podium. Benoit Cosnefroy (UAE Team Emirates) claimed fourth finishing six seconds ahead of the rest of the field. As Bob Rolle and Christian Vandevelde, "the hype is real" referring to the young Seixas. Will he eventually be the guy to finally reclaim the Tour de France for the French?
