Steven Cummings just missed out on an early podium appearance when he placed fourth at the Grand Prix la Marseillaise, France, on Sunday - the traditional start of the French racing season.

The British Team Sky rider contested the final sprint that saw six riders jump clear of the bunch. French rider Jonathan Hivert (Saur-Sojasun) took the honours, with Dutchman Johnny Hoogerland (Vacansoleil) second and Frenchman Samuel Dumoulin (Cofidis) third.

Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
