I wonder what Ineos will do in the coming years. They have first and formost been a GC team, but now there are losing a lot of GC riders. Porte is retiring, Carapaz and Yates are leaving. Rodriguez may be leaving next year. And G are turning 37 next year. And they don't have (unless Bernal returns better than ever) a GC rider of the same quality or potential as Pog, Vingegaard and Remco. Will they continue to focus on GC and signing riders that may/probably won't be able to compete for a TDF win, or will they shift their focus? For example emphasize one day classics more with youngsters like Pidock, Sheffield, Turner, etc.
Next season:
GC captains: Thomas, Bernal, Martinez, perhaps Arensman
Important domestiques: Ganna, Castreviejo, De Plus, Sivakov, Kwia
Talents/domestiques: Pidcock, Turner, Tulett, Sheffield, Leo Hayter
And we also have TGH and Ethan Hayter, but unsure what roles these two will have.
A lot of good talents and capable domestiques, but few obvious captains and contenders against Pog, Remco, Vingegaard, Van der Poel, Van Aert, etc.
