Hampered by a knee problem at the beginning of 2018, Clement Russo could not express his full potential in his first professional season. A good bike handler and a hard-working rider, Clement wants to continue to lean the job with the best. A two-time cyclocross French champion (juniors and U23), third in the U23 World Cup in 2017, he was encouraged by the team to ride in that discipline last Winter. For his first French championship as a pro, Clement finished fourth and he is aiming at claiming the Tricolore jersey in the coming years.
In his own three words: Cheerful, Determined, Impatient
My father
I had a Peugeot with Richard Virenque written on it. It was yellow and blue
Peter Sagan’s triple world titles
Being able to live my passion
A measure of maturity and a broader outlook on the world
The classics and obviously the Tour de France
I don’t have one
Valentin Deverchere who was with me in Saint-Etienne
I would be working in sport anyway
Spending time with my friends, playing on the games console and petanque
I listen to all kinds of music except hard rock
FIFA 18
A series rather than a film – I loved Prison Break
Vincent Luis
My wife’s chicken bamboo
An Audi RS6, simple and classic is good enough
I raise my arms in victory in a major race
A land of cycling
