Roubaix (North), October 24, 2021. In a big crisis of confidence, Mathilde Gros who had already missed the Tokyo Olympics (9th in speed, 13th in the keirin) has just passed through the Worlds on the Roubaix track. In the management of the France team, his case worries. “We are going to help him and accompany him, explained the national technical director, Christophe Manin. She is there physically, she is doing good times in training but she needs a mental trigger. We will try to challenge it by recreating a team speed team. It will relieve her of no longer carrying the weight of the women’s sprint on her shoulders alone. »
