The team led by Mathieu van der Poel and Jasper Philipsen traditionally goes for stage wins on flat sections and boasts one of the best sprint trains in the world.
Belgian rider Jasper Philipsen brings a wealth of experience to the race, having secured ten stage wins at the Grande Boucle; his lead-out riders, such as Kaden Groves, Mathieu van der Poel and Jonas Rickaert, are capable of challenging for victory themselves on stages of a different nature. In particular, 31-year-old van der Poel, who failed to secure a win in the major spring classics, is likely to be highly motivated to improve his season’s record at the Tour. The team does not have a rider competing for the general classification.
