Mariault times his move on the last day
Axel Mariault landed the day’s standout win. The CIC Pro Cycling Academy rider took Thursday’s third and final stage of the Tour de l’Ain-Solimut Mutuelle de France.
Three days of racing in the Ain, and the Frenchman had the last word on the 2026 edition.

A welcome return for the French squad
The result gives CIC Pro Cycling Academy something to celebrate. The French development team exists to move young riders up the ladder, and a closing-stage win at a race like this is real currency.
The Tour de l’Ain still draws a crowd on the summer calendar. Riders use it to find their legs and get sharp before the season starts to fade.
The season rolls on
For Mariault, the timing could hardly be better. His form is peaking with the last races of summer almost here.
