Men’s Race
Jelle Geens out-kicked Kyle Smith in the closing stages of the run to take second, with the top three separated by just 24 seconds at the line. Rico Bogen received a water-bottle-disposal penalty on the final bike lap that was later rescinded, but the incident left him fatigued for the run and he finished 13th. Morgan Pearson did not finish.

Why No Women’s Race?
T100 French Riviera was raced as a men’s-only round on the 2026 T100 calendar, which splits several venues by gender across the season rather than running combined men’s and women’s fields at every stop.
Season Implications
Wilde’s win was his second T100 victory of the season, continuing his dominant T100 streak.
