Last year they still put faith in Hodeg, but apparently not anyone. He is now confirmed their 2nd best sprinter after Jakobsen injuried. He could get lots of chances in minor events or races Bennett doesn't attend to.It's not that easy as long as he rides for DQS. He can and will be their sprinter for different stage races. I guess he will be for the Giro again. But it's hard to imagine he'll be more than a co-leader in any classic race.
[cyclinghistorianmode]Is the leaders jersey designed by a 5 year old?
Apparently, according to PCS, Alaph and Vlasov has been awarded s.t. as the rest. Not unfair, but surprised that these decisions doesn't seem compliant with each other.

And the La Vie kit was a tribute to the artist Piet Mondrian[cyclinghistorianmode]
The Tour de la Provence leader's jersey is a tribute to the La Vie Claire cycling team from the eighties, with Hinault and LeMond as famous riders.
