Mortier Makes A Barthez Save

Written by Team Formand United at 11:27 11/7-2023

  It was indeed a legendary race day for Team Formand United, a team that since the relegation to Division 3 hasn't delivered super results.
  
  The undervalued hill sprinter Bertrand Mortier from France tried to break away a few times at In the Khan´s Footsteps
  .. Although his daily energy was way high because of Roquefort müsli bars, he didn't succeed until it was too late. The younger, evil rider Totalidade's Zanis Agrums was first over the line, when the peloton arrived, and Mortier sprinted in just a few inches after him.
  
  It was his first podium for many years and his sixth Top 10 in three years. All in all a real save for the team that really need points now!
  
  - I consider it a real Barthez football save, Team Manager Ebbe Spas says. - Now we are getting quite close to Division 2 again thanks to Roquefort and Bertrand's clever form today. Allez!
  
  - J'aime Roquefort et points, monsieur, Bertrand says to the reporter at the hills.
