Vuelta build up
No space for Rowe, who was talking as though he was going on their pod the other week.

I don't see that as a GC team.0

Thomas and Arensmen as co-leaders, Fraile / DePlus / Castro mountain domestiques / Ganna to control the bunch, Heiduk / Bernal no idea. Not a bad GC team.0
-
It's 6 out of 8 of the Giro team0

I'd say that's a fairly decent GC team. Be good to see what Arensman can do if he gets the chance.
Surprised at Rowe, he was definitely talking as if he was going. Out of contract this year as well.1 -
I'd assumed Heiduk was on his way out of Ineos, after not really setting the world alight during his time there, but if he's been selected to ride the Vuelta ahead of Rowe then they must have plans for him.1

Amazed they found 8 riders left to make up the team2

Who would be road captain out of that team?0

I suppose all eyes will be on the Quickstep team to see if any miraculously decide to work for INEOS (or vice versa I suppose).1

I just expect to better lineups from other teams.andyp said:

It's only an opinion and it's only the internet.0 -

Just realised how few of the riders I would recognise without a race number on their back.1

I can't help but think that the role of "road captain" is somewhat overstated. Who was Vingegaard's or Pogacar's road captain at the Tour? Or Roglic's at the Giro?1
-
I don't think it is, it's a crucial role. Every team has someone, usually one of the experienced riders, who calls the shots on the road, decides when to work or not, talks and negotiates with other teams, and generally provides direction to the team in the moment. They obviously have a DS in the car, but quite often the DS doesn't see what's happening in the bunch and relies on someone to ensure the team's strategy is implemented.r0bh said:I can't help but think that the role of "road captain" is somewhat overstated.

Why don’t you make your own odds on bet fair and make the market yourself? You probably know more than most professional bookies at this point.0 -

I know that bookies work on the basic building blocks that insurance does, and I'm not taking on that much data.
I do enough data analysis at work to know that you should just keep it light and cheap.Twitter: @RichN951 -

I would be very surprised if they are considering more data then you are when it comes to cycling.RichN95. said:

Strong whiff of everyone else thinking "we should just give up and go home" about this team
Warning No formatter is installed for the format1 -
Should we read anything into Vingegaard being listed above Roglic?0

If they don’t win this there is something seriously wrong!0
