Paul Seixas becomes youngest winner of Waalse Pijl at 19

Thursday, 23 April 2026, 06:21 · 1 min read

French teenager Paul Seixas has won the 90th edition of La Flèche Wallonne, known as the Waalse Pijl (a classic one-day cycling race in the Wallonia region of Belgium, decided on the steep Mur de Huy climb). The 19-year-old attacked in the final half-kilometre of the decisive ascent, finishing three seconds ahead of Swiss rider Mauro Schmid, with Britain's Ben Tulett taking third. The victory makes Seixas the youngest winner of the race, adding to a remarkable early-season run that already includes second place at Strade Bianche and overall victory at the Tour of the Basque Country.
