Nacer Bouhanni still has not won a race in 2015. But the Cofidis, solution crédits leader will ride this weekend Milan-Sanremo, his first big goal of the season. The French hopes to shine on the Italian roads, although last week he did not beat the best riders at Paris-Nice.
"At first, Milan-Sanremo is a special race, because it is very hard physically", he told Cyclism'Actu. "There are more than 300 kilometers, so we can not talk now about train but strong men. I think I'll have solid teammates to Milan-Sanremo. Physically, I feel ready, I trained a lot for Paris-Nice and Milan-San Remo. This is a one-day race, we do not know what might happen. I participated in three training stages here, in Nice, where I could recognize the final with some teammates."
His best performance this season was a second place at the Paris-Nice first stage. "I am disappointed to have not won a stage victory, it was my objective. Especially that the form was there. I did once second, fourth, sixth and eighth. But what I research is to win races."
