“This year’s objective will be to win a Flamengo Classic. I think I’m getting better and better every year, so why not this year? The objective is to be in shape during the Flamengo Classics period and until the Amstel Gold Race, I hope”, stated the cyclist during questions.

The athlete continued to explain that, perhaps, he will participate in the Omloop and Dwars door Vlaanderen: “I don’t have much experience in the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix, but I think that in the Classics like Omloop, Harelbeke, Dwars door Vlaanderen it is possible to achieve it because I think We have a team for that. In the big ones, the Monuments, we will have to see. I don’t know if it’s possible.”
Demonstrating an excellent performance every year, Arnaud De Lie was even mentioned in a song by the band Ramones van het Groenewoud with excerpts that praise and admire the athlete’s skillful and fast nature. Upon hearing the news, the cyclist stated that he was surprised but was pleased to have been portrayed in this way.
During the press conference, Lotto-Dstny announced that instead of participating in the Giro d’Italia, Arnaud De Lie will participate for the first time in this year’s Tour de France, as there is a longer period for training, as well as planning for his performance throughout the competition.
