Jimmy Vicaut is one of my favorite athletes. The guy is just, well, French. He’s also fast as hell, and when the man gets fit, he is frightening to watch. Well, sports fans. Jimmy Vicaut has some serious speed. He was the one of the first juniors to make a World Champ final. And he is focused on the 2018 European Champs coming in Berlin, Germany in August! Watch him in Paris. Look at his quote! Again, quote from the cool press day done by Meeting de Paris. Thanks to the media team in Paris, thanks to Laurent Ducoury!
