if RAGT Semences and Jean Delatour got a TDF invite, then the Unibet Rockets can get one

Jean Delatour had Patrice Halgand who was quite good and also a couple of decent French riders (Laurent Lefevre, Goubert). Not a great team, but decent enough to compete.
RAGT Semences was indeed horrible and possibly the worst team to participate in TdF since 2000.
Jayco add Matthews, DaPretto, Foldager, Engelhardt, Hellmose, Mckenzie, Ackermann and probably Traen which gives 28 riders.

Latest gossip from Norwegian cycling Twitter is that Træen stays with Bahrain.

no idea if it's complete, but PCS has a "new on pro level" page. It doesn't list any other 18-year old.

Hold on, has the "Guys... I regret, I wanna stay with Alpecin!" thing involving Edward Planckaert been resolved?
Apparently there are rumours that QS has signed L. Rex, which would require someone else being removed from the team.

Finally it all makes sense
T. Rex is with Visma, though.
Tim Rex
Tim Rex (born 2004-04-11) is a former professional road racing cyclist from Belgium, currently riding for Team Visma | Lease a Bike Development. His best results are 3rd place in stage Tour de l'Avenir and 10th place in GC Orlen Nations Grand Prix.

Weird that PCS hasn't updated things, then. They're usually pretty up-to-date.

If someone wants to have a late night laugh.
Matthew Fox, 23 year old guy who rode in the French amateur scene (and as a trainee for Lotto) this year, will survive the merger. Yes guys like Bonneu, Thompson, Veistroffer, Smith, even possibly Marit and Thijssen won't survive, but Fox will
Well at least that's what I'm taking away from him doing bikefits with Lotto on Orbea's today.

Before 2000 you also had Big Mat - Auber 93 who always got a Tour invite for just being french.

Well, they should have room for 2 neo pros that get their own spots rather than taking spots from anyone else. I'm guessing Jarno Widar still counts for the other neo pro spot. Don't know if they have more?If someone wants to have a late night laugh.

Hmm, that list must not list riders who rode as stagiares for some reason. Otherwise Ingebrigtsen and Svarre for Uno-X should be on the list.no idea if it's complete, but PCS has a "new on pro level" page. It doesn't list any other 18-year old.

The will have >8 that count as a neopro... That has nothing to do with it. It's a money thing. Merger should've led to a way bigger budget but it didn't. At this point they don't even know for sure if Intermarché is on board.

So the merger could simply end up being Intermarché calling it quits like B&B rather than an actual merger then?
