Worrying fact is the main riders are looking worse this year. Thijssen is sprinting very poorly, Rota and Page are missing.intermarché is not safe if Girmay doesn't perform and they keep going like they have been since day one of this season. DSM is having some bad luck with Bardet and Poole out. I expect them to ask Bardet to delay his retirement if necessary.
Barré and Marit are the only possitive performances for the first few months. If Goossens is able to avoid crashes he also seems to be coming back to life.
