Perspective
Arndt rode for LKT Team Brandenburg between 2010 and 2012, before joining the Argos–Shimano team for the 2013 season. He achieved his first professional victory at the 2013 Arctic Race of Norway, winning the third stage,[5] en route to finishing third overall behind Thor Hushovd and Kenny van Hummel. Arndt also won the young riders classification at the event, as the best-placed rider under the age of 25. The following year, he took his first win at the UCI World Tour level, winning stage three of the Critérium du Dauphiné in a sprint finish.[6] In 2016, Arndt won the final stage of the Giro d'Italia, his first Grand Tour stage win.
In early 2017, he won the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race, a one-day race on the World Tour.[7] In June of the same year, he was named in the startlist for the Tour de France, which was his first time competing in the race.[8] He notably finished second on stage 19. His success at Grand Tours continued after a relatively uneventful 2018 season, winning stage eight of the 2019 Vuelta a España.[9] He was part of the winning team in the mixed relay event at the 2021 UCI Road World Championships in September.[10] The month prior, he also won a stage of the Tour de Pologne.[11]
After ten years with Argos–Shimano and its subsequent iterations, Arndt signed a two-year deal in August 2022 with Team Bahrain Victorious, starting from the 2023 season.[12]
