On just his second race day of the season, Juan Ayuso of UAE Team Emirates-XRG produced a tremendous ride to win the 2025 Faun Drôme Classic after a 40km-long solo attack.
The Spaniard finished runner-up in this race last year, but goes one better to add the title to his Faun-Ardèche Classic crown from 2024.
It was a supreme ride from both Ayuso and his UAE Team Emirates-XRG teammates, all of whom were keen to leave this weekend of back-to-back French one-day races with a result. After his win at last year’s Faun-Ardèche Classic, Ayuso made sure that UAE Team Emirates-XRG would retain their title at the Faun Drôme Classic, with the help of teammate Isaac del Toro.
Ayuso said, “We had a plan from the start to attack right where I did and the lead out from Isaac was planned and he did it perfectly.
“Isaac really put me in the perfect position to be able to attack so a big thanks must go to him."
