2021 French Road Cycling Cup
The 2021 French Road Cycling Cup was the 30th edition of the French Road Cycling Cup.
The number of events was restored to 16 as many events returned to the calendar after having been cancelled in the 2020 edition due to the COVID-19 pandemic in France. The pandemic strongly impacted the schedule again, as four events have been rescheduled from spring to autumn.
The defending champion from the previous season was Nacer Bouhanni of Arkéa–Samsic.
Despite winning three races, the most of any rider in this edition of the cup, Elia Viviani (Cofidis) finished second to Dorian Godon (AG2R Citroën Team), who won two races and secured five other top-ten finishes.[1] By virtue of winning the individual general classification, Godon also won the young rider classification.[2] AG2R Citroën Team completed the sweep by winning the teams classification, after having led it for all but one round; this was the team's third consecutive win in that classification.[3]
Events
The calendar featured the regular 16 events again, after last season when cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic reduced the cup to only eight races.
