First team line-up for 2025 Tour de France unveiled as Uno-X Mobility vow 'to shape the stages, not just follow wheels' without Kristoff in final season
No room for veteran before retirement in favour of Omloop N🧜ieuwsblad winner Søren Wærenskjold for the sprints

The first team roster for the 2025 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France has been unveiled, 19 days before the Gran𒊎d Départ, with🐭 Uno-X Mobility heading into their third appearance in search of a stage win.
Veteran 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alexander Kristoff hasn't made the selection in his final season before retirement, with Omloop Nieuwsblad🧸 winner Søren Wærenskjold operating as their selected sprinter, anℱd 22-year-old Stian Fredheim as a second fast man.
Team general manager Thor Hushovd described i🔴t as "the hardest selection we’ve ever made", with the🌞 eight-man lineup presented at Uno-X Denmark’s headquarters in Søborg.
"Some very strong riders miss out – and that says a lot about howও far we’ve come as ꦗa team. Every year we raise the bar. We’re still chasing the big one: a Tour stage win, and this team is made for that," said Hushovd in a .
"Leaving out Alexander was incredibly tough. He absolutely deserved a final Tour appearance, and I’m confident he would have delivered – just like he always does. But this year, we’ve chosen Søren Wærenskjold as our main sprinter. He’s shown he can win sprints agai🃏nst the very best."
The opening stage o🥃f this year's race should be one for the sprinters, for the first time since 2020 in Nice, when Kristoff took victory riding for UAE Team Emi꧒rates.
While the GC isn't an announced goal for the Scandinavian team, twin brothers Anders and Tobias Halland Johannessen will start their first Tour together off the back of a GC win at the Tour of Slovenia and a fifth-place overall finish at the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Critérium du Dauphiné, respectively.
