Martin going to Etna to prep, climbing it 20 times, and never once climbing the side you're going to race really puts into perspective French team culture and race prep lol

Leemreize a bit of a dark horse here ? He's had a low-key season so far but last year's Tour de l'Avenir is shaping up well

Lol, this is probably the most prematurely pessimistic take I've seen on this site. Which really says a lot.

Funniest thing ever was when the "cultural expert" on Rai once talked about his book. The other commentators asked him what he thinks about it and he just said "he should stick to cycling".

lol.. yeh amazing indeed.
Terpstra said that when he joined Direct Energies they still used limonade during races.... Terpstra didn't perform well due to many reasons at the team, but he did bring a lot of knowledge to the team. It's just strange that a rider needs to bring it....

Translation clarification that apparently Martin has done the climb haha.
I maintain the fact it was believable that he hadn't also stands testament to french team culture and approach

I drink limonade during most of my rides. Can't see why it'd be inferior to fancy sport drinks. It's healthier for sure

Oldani is a quality rider. Apparently Gilbert wanted to have him at his side in the classics when they both rode for Lotto.

Not sure that's an indication here. There are more dark horses in this group. Vansevenant is the same age but finished 6th in Avenir 2 years before Leemreize finished 4th. Same year Moniquet crashed in the last stage while he had been in the top 10 for most of the week.
