TOUR DE FRANCE | 06/24/2024 | 10:04
There Lidl Trek announces his training for the Tour de France proposing it on the label of a great vintage wine! And the ambitions of a team that appears very aggressive are also great, even if they are necessarily without a top man.
Sporting director Steven De Jongh explains the team like this: «Although we have had to make some changes to our starting lineup due to illness and injuries, I am very confident in the strength of our Tour de France team. Given the forced absence of Tao Geoghegan Hart, we have decided to insert an additional element in support of Mads Pedersen to aim for stage wins, but at the same time we have assembled a team that has a wealth of experience and depth of talent. A group of riders that we know and have seen on countless occasions both this year and in previous years can work exceptionally well together. Giulio Ciccone he got back on track after returning from his health problems earlier in the year and ran really well at the Critérium du Dauphiné, especially in the uphill stages. Also Jasper Stuyven he arrives to replace an injured Alex Kirsch, but we know he will be a valuable asset. Next to them we will have the experience of Julien BernardOf Toms Skujins and of Carlos Veronawhile Mads will be able to count on the precious work of Tim Declercq and of Ryan Gibbons».
