Froome and Thomas left off Ineos TdF team
News this morning from multiple sources.
Froome kind of makes sense, Thomas not so much. BK

I saw that. Surprised about Thomas, not so much about Froome. They should have let Froome go to Israel Start Up the day he signed with them.

Not as strong a team for Ineos. I have always liked Kwiatkowski but he is not the rider he used to be either.

Not enough "marginal gains" this season...

Well everyone says they have too many captains. This years they don't.

Lose a TDF winner? No problem, replace with the winner of the Giro. I wouldn’t not bet against them with this new line-up. Actually I believe it narrows their focus and potentially makes them stronger. |

So i guess this means that the big rolling spectacle of the tour is a GO across France then?
Should be interesting!

That is surprising about Thomas. I wonder what their thinking is on that one.

I’m not sure Froome ever comes back to his old level and Geraint Thomas is no kid anymore either, at least in terms of winning grand tours. |

Kind of a no-brainer based on the Dauphine. With only two weeks to go it's decision time.

I keep wondering: what’s up with Rohan Dennis? He proved last year that he can train on his own, and was ostensibly hired to fulfill the role Tony Martin has on Jumbo-Visma. But we haven’t seen him at any races this year (have we)?
