With under than a week to go until the Grand Départ of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2025 Tour de France in Lille, teams are putting the final touches 🌄on their preparations and confirming their eight-man selections for the biggest race of the year.

The Tour peloton will be comprised of 184 riders across 23 teams, with each outfit approaching the race with different goals and ambitions. For some teams, anything less than the maillot jaune in Paris will be conﷺsidered a disappointment, while others would be satisfied with a single stage win. WorldTour survival and new sponsors are top of the wishlist for others.

French team 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Arkéa-B&B Hotels head into the Tour fighting for survival on several fronts. On one hand, they lie just over 3,000 points adrift of 18th place in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:race for UCI WorldTour status for the next three seasons, and on the other, they'll be looking to do what they can to attract new title sponsors after both Arkéa and ꦛB&B Hotels announced▨ their departure at the end of 2025.

Jack Haig comes along as road captain on the mountainous days, while new signing 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lenny Martinez, France's great young hope, also makes the selection. The 21-year-old has won stages at Paris-Nice, the Tour de Romandie, and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Critérium du Dauphiné, and he'll be one to watch in the mountains again here, though the team hasn't mentioned a GC bid for hi🍒m this month.

Finally, the team will be looking to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Bryan Coquard and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alexis Renard for the sprint stages. Coquard has eight stage podiums at the𒅌 Tour without a victory over the years, and, frankly, that doesn't look like changing this July. Renard is the form man, meanwhile, having picked up podium spots at the recent Brussels Cycling Classic and Copenhagen Sprint. (DO)

Having enjoyed another fairly successful campaign so far this season, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale will be looking to add more Grand Tour success to their results sheet after Nicolas Prodhomme’s triumph on stage 19 of the Giro d’Italia. Despite his impressive showing to take eighth overall at the Critérium du Dauphiné, Paul Seixas has not been selected for the Tour de France, as the team will instead focus their GC ambitions around 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Felix Gall.

The Austrian rider has performed well in recent editions of the Tour de France, winning the queen stage to Courchevel and finishing eighth overall in 2023 to announce himself as a GC contender for future seasons. Coming into this year’s race, Gall has shown himself to be in good form, as he finished fourth overall at the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de Suisse with a strong 𓄧performance in the mountain time trial on the final stage.

Meanwhile, the team around him seems geared towards stage hunting, as the French outfit will look to hedge their bets across as many riders as possible during the race. Another rider in good form this season is 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Bruno Armirail, as strong stage racing performances have seen him win the mountains classifications at both Itzulia Basque Country and the Critérium du Dauphiné♚;, before going on to win the time trial at the French National Championships.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Bastien Tronchon is another rider to watch, as the 23-year-old Frenchman has come into some decent form in recent months. After finishing runner-up at the Tour du Finistère in May, he went on to win Tro Bro Léon a couple of days later, marking his first victory in nearly three years. He then finished in the top 10 on two stages of the Dauphiné and has now earned himself a call-up for the Tour de France. (𝓡JL)

After the news that 💛Richard Carapaz would be unable to start the𝔍 Tour de France due to a gastrointestinal infection, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:EF Education-EasyPost have had to reshape their objectives going into the race, moving from a more GC-centred strategy to a sole focus on stage hunting wherever opportunities present themselves. 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Neilson Powless and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ben Healy will likely lead the team, as they have both shown strong for🍒m throughout the season, particularly♛ in the Spring Classics.

Ben Healy has tasted Grand Tour success in the past, winning stage 8 of the Giro d’Italia in 2023. Last year’s Tour de France was 🙈his first participation at the race, with a fifth place finish on stage 9 as his best result. He currently has one win to his name this season, which came on stage 5 of Itzulia Basque Country in April. His other standout result was undoubtedly his podium finish at Liège-Bastogne-Liège, whilst on the final stage of the Critérium du Dauphiné, he showed some strong climbing form on the final climb of the Col du Mont-Cenis.

The traditional home team, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Groupama-FDJ, bring a strong contingent of French riders to the race, with only one non-French rid🐻er in their entire lineup. With no obvious GC contender within their ranks, the team will likely target stage wins with the possibility of challenging for t🐲he top 15 overall, depending on the situation in the general classification going into the final week.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Romain Grégoire is the standout name on their eight-man roster, as his punchy and aggressive style should suit the hillier stages in the opening week. The 22-year-old’s solo movღe to win the opening stage of the Tour de Suisse saw him take the overall lead until the race reached its first summit finish. At the French National Championships, he just missed the title to Dorian Godon in the sprint.

The team’s GC ambitions will rest mainly on the shoulders of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Guillaume Martin. The Frenchman has finished inside the top 15 in each of the last nine Grand Tours he has finished, with his highest placing being eighth at the Tour de France in 2021. Tenth overall at the recent Critérium du Dauphiné shows that he is coming into some good form just ahead of the Tour, and with plenty of opportunities for success throughout the race, do not count him out for a stage victory when the race enters ꦏmore hilly terrain.

A new approach to racing has certainly yielded results for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ineos Grenadiers in 2025, with 11 victories (excluding national championship titles) to their name so far this season, six of which have come at WorldTour level. However, it will be interesting to see if they will continue to race in the🥂 same aggressive fashion at the Tour de France, a race that the team once dominated for several years.

In terms of GC ambitions, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Rodríguez will be the team’s protected leader, having finished fifth and seventh overall in the last two editions of the Tour. In fact, the Spaniard has n🐟ever finished outside the top 10 overall in each of the four Grand Tours that he has ridden♛ in his career. The 24-year-old recently finished ninth overall at the Critérium du Dauphiné and only seemed to get better as the race went on, which could be a sign that his form is peaking just in time for this race.

Stage wins will also be a strong priority for the team, with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Filippo Ganna among their ranks as a strong contender for the flat time trial around Caen on stage 5. Though he looked slightly off the boil in the race against💫 the clock at the Baloise Belgium Tour, he was still able to claim his fourth consecutive national time trial title and will be keen to take his first Tour de France stage win in the tricolore co♓lours.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Geraint Thomas will also be riding in his final Tour de France, as the former winner of the maillot jaune will be retiring at the end of the season. It is currently unclear what to expect from the Welshman, as there has been no indication so far this season that he has any intention to compete for the general classification. His recent crash at the Tour de Su🌞isse has also affected his preparation,🃏 as he was forced to abandon the race as a precaution and then opted to skip his final National Championships in Wales. (JL)

They've said they're focused squarely on stage wins – defending🐎 green is less important – and Girmay will naturally spearhead that aim, with the team heavily built around his lead-out. After the high of 2024, the 25-year-old is actually yet to win this season, partly because he missed some key stage races, but he's been up there regularly and clearly has the ability to win a Tour de France stage.

His lead-out is strong, with Hugo Page and Laurenz Rex part of his wins last year, whilst Roel van Sintmaartensdijk and Vito Braet are decent reinforcements. Though sprint stage wins seem the most likely outcome for Intermarché, they will also have half an eye on breakaways and opportunities – don't be surprised to see them reౠpresented in the break, even on flat stages, where Jonas Rutsch could be a good option.

For the tougher parts of the race, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Michael Woods is returning from illness to try and win a second Tour de France stage, and if he can get in the right break, his climbing skills are good enough to deliver him to a win if he's feeling well. Look out for Tour de l'Avenir winner 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Joseph Blackmore, who is making his Grand Tour debut, and should be motivated ﷽to get stuck in. (MP)

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lidl-Trek are heading to this Tour mainly targeting sprint wins for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jonathan Milan, with maybe a sprinkling of a GC ambition for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mattias Skjelmose, but they've not liജned up a huge amount of support for the Dane. Instead, the team is very lead-out heavy, with Milan bringing his most trusted pilots to his maiden Tour✃ de France in Simone Consonni and Edward Theuns.

As for the GC, the absence of Tao Geoghegan Hart means Skjelmose is in a party of one when it comes to the climbers. The Amstel Gold Race winner has struggled with illness and injury for the last couple ofജ months, but did demonstrate his form with a win at the Andorra MoraBanc Classic a week and a half ago. He might still be thinking about a top 10, but with so little climbing support, that may be a tough ask. ꦺ(MP)

Movistar head to this Tour with the same goal they've had for the last few years: a top GC finish for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Enric Mas. The Spaniard is incredibly consistent as he's ridden 13 Grand Tours in his career. He only finished outside of the top six on three 🌃occasions, though the Tour has often been his weakest, with 19th, DNF, DNF, 5th and 22nd his record in France, compared to four Vuelta podiums.

Roglič will certainly start as number one, but Lipowitz just finished third at the Critérium du Dauphiné and has really been proving his credentials as a GC rider this year. This is his first Tour, so the expectations won't be massive, but if something goes wrong for Roglič, which, as history suggests, is possible, then the German could absolutely step into a bigger role at Red Bull.

It's definitely not all about GC at Red Bull, though, with a team made up of as many puncheurs and sprinters as climbers. Meeus has got sprint leadership over Sam Welsford, who is being left at home, and he'll be supported by the inimitable 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Danny van Poppel, whilst the likes of Laurence Pithie and Mick van Dijke will bꦜe use🌸ful in the tougher, Classics-style stages of the first half of the race. (MP)

Beyond the GC battle for Remco Evenepoel, Soudal-QuickStep have a strong sprint hope in 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tim Merlier, who enters the race as a strong contender to form💖er teammate Jasper Philipsen and Trek-Lidl's Tour debutante Jonathan🐷 Milan. Merlier has shown promising form in recent months, having won the Brussels Cycling Classic and two stages at the Baloise Belgium Tour in June. (PS)

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ben O’Connor, who haཧs a knack of managing to get away in just the right move, has clearly proven that his fourth place in 2021 wꦇas no fluke through the intervening years – now having won stages and taken top four slots across all the Grand Tours including second overall at Vuelta a España – but in the pressure cooker of a French team at their all important home race did not return to the same heights delivered on debut.

When it comes to the Tour de France, Picnic-PostNL has been almost synonymous with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Romain Bardet since 2021. With the French rider retiring after the Critérium du Dauphiné, however, Picnic-PostNL's post-Bardet world is set to be led by young British rider 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Oscar Onley. He will be in pursuit of a high GC placement, fresh from his third place in the general classificatio𓆉n at the Tour de Suisse.

Turgis is back again, but he's far from being the only breakaway specialist in the Tour squad with the most markedly French feel to its lineup, given Belgian climber 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Steff Cras is the one foreigner. Alexandre Delettre was recently just one step off the podium in the recent Nationals road race, and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mathieu Burgaudeau was repeatedly on the attack in the Dauphiné. Mattéo Vercher, responsible for one of their six wins this season at the GP Doubs, also sn𝄹affled a second place in a transition stage of the Tour last year behind Victor Campenaerts.

Keep an eye out, too, for Emilien Jeannière, a regular top-five finisher in all manner of different bunch sprints this year. The Frenchman has taken a runner-up spot in Paris-Nice and third in the rugged hills of Spain in the Clásica Almeria this spring, and most recently third in the newest WorldTour race, the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Copenhagen Sprint, this June against a very deep field of rivals.

There can be little doubt what the overriding goal for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Visma-Lease a Bike is in this year's Tour de France. With 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jonas Vingegaard in their ranks, they have the key candidate who can challenge Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates-XRG), and although Matteo Jorgenson may enjoy some degree of protected rider status, it's Vingegaard on whom the team are pinning almost all their main hopes.

Two Tour de France wins and two runner-up spots in the last four years cannot be argued with, after all, particularly as last July's second place has to be taken in the context of a lengthy recovery from a life-threatening crash in April in Itzulia Basque Country. That mass pile-up shaped the entire year for multiple GC contenders, but arguably none more than Vingegaard and after a stinging defeat at the hands of Pogačar in 2024, he'll be gunning for a very different result in 2025.

So high are the stakes that even climbers as talented as 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Simon Yates, the recent Giro d'Italia winner and Sepp Kuss, the Vuelta a España champion of less than two years ago, will be wo🀅rking for Vingegaard. Jorgenson may have a mixture of roles, from GC candidate to one of Vingegaard's key high mountains supporters, while Edoardo Affini, Tiesj Benoot and Victor Campenaerts will likely be doing a lot of the teamwork on the flat.

Then there's 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Wout van Aert: the ultra-versatile Belgiaꦑn has won everything from mountain stages (including one over the Ventoux) to bunch sprints to time trials, and he's also regularly called on as a team worker. It remains to be seen if a late illness that left him out of the Belgian Nℱationals has any further effects. If not, expect Van Aert to be a potential factor in almost any stage, right from day one in Lille. (AF)

For 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tudor Pro Cycling, the 2025 Tour de France is seismic. Only rebranded as Tudor and backed by Fabian Cancellara in 2022, the team stepped up to ProTeam level in 2023. It has been a meteoric rise from those UCI Continental team roots to seeing the squad race the Giro d'Italia. The wi⛦ldcard slot for the Tour de France this year, though, has truly transformed the team's status.

Six stage wins in 2025 – the most in the mountains since Gino Bartali in 1948 – and the overall victory by the biggest winning margin of all three of his Tours conquered so far is an almost ridiculously high bar for Pogačar to have set. Normal logic would dictate that Vingegaard, having more ground to make up since his 2024 crash, will be able to close the gap. But normal logic long since stopped applying to Pogačar's sporting achievements.

The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:UAE Team Emirates-XRG team itself is virtually identical to 2024, with only the exit of Juan Ayuso and his replacement by Ecuadorian all-rounder Jhonatan Narváez the one change. Beyond that, Nils Politt and Belgian champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tim Wellens will have their fair share of flatland duties, Sivakov and Narváez will be on patrol in the hilly stages, and Adam Yates, Marc Soler and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:João Almeida will be the key figures supporting Pogačar in the mountains.

Lacking their talismanic sprinter veteran leader, Alexandre Kristoff, one of the key names to watch is undoubtedly 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Magnus Cort. An ultra-fast breakaway specialist with two Tour de France and six Vuelta a España stage wins to his name, Cort did not produce any victories in the 2024 Tour. But as his sixth place in Strade Bianche, sixth place in Milano-San Remo and overall victory in the hilly O Gran Cami&🦋ntilde;o testify the 32-year-old Dane cannot be ruled out in any sort of sce🦩nario.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Søren Wærenskjold already provided the team with one of its biggest successes to date, in the bunch sprint that concluded an otherwise very lacklustre edition of the Omloop Het Nieuwsblad. He could well be a factor in the grittier first stages of northern and western France. 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Andreas Leknessund, meanwhile, has just added the Norwegian road title to his national time trial golds from a fe💛w years back and is likewise very much an excellent all-ro✅under.

Much as the team raced in the Giro d'Italia, the 2025 Tour de France is raced with a string of stage hunters and no standout leader. Some like sprinters Cees Bol and Davide Ballerini, as well as Kazakh time trialling giant and former U23 champion Yevgeniy Fedorov, are 'veterans' from the Cavendish Tour. Others like former Tour de France leader 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mike Teunissen, former Vuelta a Espa&ntild✱e;a summit finish winner Clément Champoussin and week-long specialist Sergio Higuita ar🦹e all new to the much overhauled XDS-Astana this year.
