Axel Laurance (born 13 April 2001) is a French cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam Alpecin–Deceuninck .[3]
Early career [ edit ]
Laurance started cycling at an early age, initially partaking in BMX , before moving to other disciplines including road, track and cyclo-cross .[4] As a junior rider in 2019, he won stages of the Ronde des Vallées [fr ] and the Grand Prix Rüebliland .
In 2020, he joined the Vélo Club Pays de Loudéac, the development squad for B&B Hotels p/b KTM .[5] In June 2021, he finished third overall in the Under-23 Peace Race with the French national team, having won the last stage in a small group sprint.
B&B Hotels–KTM (2022) [ edit ]
In August 2021, he joined UCI ProTeam B&B Hotels–KTM as a stagiaire , and signed to ride with the team full time in 2022.[6]
In August 2022, he finished second at the 2022 Bretagne Classic Ouest–France in his first year as a professional.[7] A month later, he took his first pro win, outsprinting Jonathan Milan and Matej Mohorič on stage four of the CRO Race .[8]
Alpecin–Deceuninck Development Team (2023) [ edit ]
At the end of 2022, B&B Hotels–KTM folded, forcing Laurance to find a new team. He was forced to step down to the UCI Continental level with Alpecin–Deceuninck Development Team , as their World Tour squad had already reached the maximum 30 riders. Laurance took several wins in 2023, most notably culminating with the World Under-23 Road Race Championships , winning after a 26 kilometer solo effort.[9]
Alpecin–Deceuninck (2024–present) [ edit ]
In 2024, he officially joined UCI WorldTeam Alpecin–Deceuninck , taking an early season victory on stage two of the Étoile de Bessèges in February.[10] In late March, he won his first UCI WorldTour level race on stage five of the Volta a Catalunya .[11]
Personal life [ edit ]
Laurance comes from a family of cyclists: he is the son of Franck Laurance [fr ] , who was a professional cyclist in 1995 and 1996, and Manuella Le Cavil, a three-time Brittany regional champion. His sister Typhaine Laurance [fr ] is also a cyclist.[12] [13]
