But considering last year, it’s a big step forward. We improved towards the end of the season in terms of strategy. We have to improve our race pace because we have more difficulty on Sunday. But we are pushing and we will continue to do so in the winter phase to catch up more ground”. Therefore, the determination and the prospects for the next 2023 World Cup do not seem to be weakening.
