it's June 3rd and no news about Arkea's future?

so, the gaps are still closing.

COFIDIS are now on the hot seat (the 5th team to ocupy the 19th place this year) UNO-X and ARKEA are going downhill. IPT went uphill thanks to Gee, but overall the gaps are still closing.
after the TDF, some teams destiny will be more clear, if it is for promotion or relegation.

Very interesting to follow the next months. Will teams adjust their program and of their riders? Who's get injured and some hot racing coming up in October in Asia?

i think it's now more depend on the wildcard and invites the team can achieve.
in any case they can still manage to get the TDF invite, being a French team. that's serves as a kind of insurance policy to all the French teams of course.

There are more interesting charts above.
But I feel obligated to see this one through

they don't know, as of now, if they'll get the wild card. they will out of the guaranteed wild cards, and Bernaudeau (Total) will have a team in 2026.

I feel its more about them potentially not existing next year to worry about wildcards. They need to perform now if they are to attract a new sponsor.

To be honest a lot of riders are not pro-worthy. They stacked the team low budget with riders from their development squad. Though for the Tour they can field a really nice team with Vauquelin, Gesbert, Demare, Garcia Pierna, C-Rod2, Costiou, Guarnalec and Gugliemi but they haven't got a B-squad. Mozzato and Svestad will find their place next year.

but why should they really care about other races at all? if you are a decent French team (at least placed 30) you can participate in this race (specially now when they allowed 23 teams) , which is really is "the race" and you can even say is "the pro sport".
