It's not like Plugge has never given any other team any compliments. These just don't reach the Anglophone media. I'm not his biggest fan but he's also being turned into a bit of a caricature of what he really is.

Affini is doing the Tignes altitude camp later this month along with the rest of the TDF team (apart from Benoot who does Tour de Suisse). He will be the replacement for Laporte

Ben tullet deserves a spot in the Tour France.

Custom says if you put add an athlete to finite list, you have remove someone from the list.

So give us the eight deserving riders for Visma's TdF.

Yeah of course. That's the reason they signed Yates in the first place, to be the last man in the mountains for Vingegaard. The Giro win is just a bonus.

Tullett is probably the reserve for if one of the climbers (Yates, Kuss, Jorgenson, maybe Benoot) gets injured.

Red Bull have 'their own' as well, UAE in danger of becoming second class.

No surprises at all. I don't really understand the confidence they have in Benoot, but other than that, the team should be more than good enough to support a potential runner up in the Tour.

Tbf, Benoot just raced his first race after a (probably too) long spring classics campaign. He might improve a lot at the Tour. Not many guys you could throw in otherwise besides Tulett and for him the plan is to ride the Vuelta.

Benoot rumoured to L'Oréal Decathlon right? Not sure if the rumors holds?

But the guy is stellar.
