Pierrick Fedrigo, member of the FDJ.fr team since 2011, will join Bretagne-Séché Environment in 2015. Aged 35, he signed a contract for one season. But apparently, the last months with the Marc Madiot's team was not well. According to the French website Velochrono, the native of Marmande regrets the way he was treated.    

 

In recent months, the French rider is discreet in the media. But now, he want to tell the truth. "With FDJ, I went round and round in circles. I did not know what they wanted to do with me. They may be afraid to tell me they did not keep me. Frankly, everyone must do his job. If a manager is not able to tell a rider that he is not kept in the team, it's sad!"

 

He explained he was very disappointed at the silence of Marc Madiot about his future. "If you find an other team, go on ! That's what he was told. If I had a proposal somewhere it really made me understand that I had to go and accept. My desire was to stay, but I was not integrated in their strategy."

 

With FDJ, he won a stage at the 2012 Tour de France and at the 2012 Critérium International. Last year, he inscribed his name in the history of Paris-Camembert. "Although the end of the year was not well, I will remember the good moments. I learned, I have the opportunity to know some riders. We won national titles in France. I attended some wins. That's what I remember, I was able to make my contribution to the building. But I do want to thank anyone, I've done my job."

 

Why did he chose the Breton team for next season? "I have not had much contact because a lot of teams thought I was going to stop my career. It is not my goal, I'm motivated and I want to continue. I like it, I could not see myself stopping. With Bretagne-Séché Environnement, it will enable me to revive me for the next few years."
