At 19-years old, Paul Sexias became the youngest winner in the history of La Flèche Wallonne. He powered up the Muy du Huy and no one could match his explosive attack.Mauro Schmid took second and Ben Tulett claimed third in the mid-week classic that serves an appetizer to Sunday’s more challenging Liege-Bastogne-Liege. “I don’t fully realize the magnitude of this victory. I’m already focused on Liege-Bastogne-Liege; the goals keep coming one after the next, and you have to stay focused. I’m just extremely happy with what we did today. Stats and records are nice, but the important thing is to win. I focused on what I have to do: winning. I’m the team leader, and age doesn’t matter - if I start a race, it’s to win it. Today I was capable of pulling it off, and the team put everything in place for me.” -Paul Sexias
