BERGEN, Norway (Reuters) - France's David Lappartient will beat incumbent Brian Cookson to be elected president of the International Cycling Union (UCI) if the body's European delegates vote as one, former UCI chief Pat McQuaid told Reuters.
Both Lappartient and Cookson have said they were confident of getting 30 of the 45 delegates' votes in Thursday's election.
