Not surprising that WvA is disappointed with Mike Teunissen hitting the Tenerife rock and picking up another longish term injury.rick_chasey said:
Jumbo vs AG2R yeah I'd take AG2R assuming they don't have injuries. MvdP's team is basically him and Dries De Bondt and Dries is good but not the one.yorkshireraw said:

I still think having 3 jacks is better than 1 ace in a cobbled classic.
It's a great combo at AG2R - Jungels can go from long and you would expect either Naesen or GvA to make the proper selection - they also know the courses so well - their expertise and their commitment to that part of the season will rub off on the rest of the team.

Ultimately it's a bit of a lottery so you need enough riders at a certain level that you have a chance at least one of them will make the final selection, and if you have more you have tactical options which can take priority over legs.0

Really hope they get on and admit the Olympics are off so MVDP can get that out of the back of his mind and focus on producing a classics campaign for the ages...2
