The raid of French medals continues in track cycling!
This Tuesday evening, Sébastien Vigier won gold at the Keiren after a superb race at the European Championships in Munich.
Winner in sprint on Sunday and silver medalist in the team sprint, the Ile-de-France driver won again.
While he had been in difficulty during the semi-final, and placed last at the start of the final by the draw, the Frenchman impressed.
He crossed the finish line in first position after being penultimate with two laps to go.
This is the 6th gold medal for the French team in track cycling.
In total, France has won 14 in this discipline.
IN GOLD AND BRONZE 🇫🇷
