Hudson Claims Breakthrough Win at Classic Région Sud U19 - Super Dévoluy

Harry Hudson stormed to victory in the inaugural edition of the Classic Région Sud U19 – Super Dévoluy on Monday 30 June, sealing a landmark result for both rider and team on the international stage.

The 115.8 km one-day race, categorised UCI 1.1, took the junior peloton through the rugged beauty of the French Hautes-Alpes - starting from La Joue-du-Loup and finishing atop Super Dévoluy. With just under 20 km to go, Hudson launched a well-timed attack on the decisive climb and never looked back, soloing to the win with remarkable poise and power.

The final podium saw Harry take top spot, ahead of Belgian contender Yasu Vervoort (R.EV Brussels Cycling Academy) in second and fellow Brit Finn O’Brien (TrainSharp Development Team) in third.

A Season of Ascendancy

Harry’s win in Super Dévoluy is just the latest in a breakout 2025 campaign. Earlier this year, he claimed victory at the prestigious Liège-Bastogne-Liège Juniors, and he remains the reigning two-time British junior hill climb champion. Monday’s result adds a first UCI 1.1 win to his rapidly growing palmarès and marks a key milestone for both rider and team.
