In the late 90s, Lionel Briot frequented the "Velodrome". Fascinated by the fans’ collective hysteria, he turned his back on the match. As part of the "inner circle", he accompanied the fans as they travelled, both in France and abroad, blending into the crowd to photograph them up close over many years (from 1996 to 2002). This photographic work, documenting excitement, rage and personal challenge, has become a powerful testament.
