Who is going to be the Ineos GC hope?
Martinez? Pdcock? Bernal?
No chance. Stage hunting might be an interesting tactic

Rodriguez,Martinez,Bernal.
Feel bad that Bernal is struggling with his recovery,will he ride Dauphine ? I really hope he can get back to his tour winning form.
Pidcock you'd hope they'll take,just to liven things up !

Bernal but not Pidcock listed on https://cyclingstartlist.com/event/CritériumduDauphiné at the moment.

Fingers crossed he's fit enough to ride the Tour... worst case scenario is he falls out of GC contention and they let him go in breaks and go for stages 😁

I'm sure they will after the Alpe last year.

He's not exactly training conventionally for a GT going off on his MTB!

I thought this was the 2023 thread?

I just posted it here on the off chance anyone was interested but fair enough...although you'd be hard pushed to make a behind the scenes documentary about a race that hasn't happened yet.
I've a spoiler for you though Thomas isn't riding it this year.

Looks like Thibaut's going.

Interestingly Twitter showed me an advert for "Tactical Pants" underneath this. Are they trying to say something about Pinot's riding style?

 

[Adam4868]

Feel for Bennet because I like him !

Groupama-FDJ confirm Thibaut Pinot and David Gaudu for Tour de France lineup | Cyclingnews – https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/gr...ot-and-david-gaudu-for-tour-de-france-lineup/

No Bennett, no Demare... must be doing Cavendish's odds some good!
