S8 Ep83: What does Froome's departure mean for Team Ineos' Tour de France plans?
The Cycling Podcast07/17/20 • 60 min
Following confirmation that Chris Froome is to leave Team Ineos for Israel Start-Up Nation, we discuss the implications for the upcoming Tour de France.
Richard Moore, Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe speculate on who Team Ineos will select as the team looks for an eighth Tour de France title in nine years. Will Froome make the final eight or not?
We also hear from Freddy Ovett, son of former Olympic champion middle-distance runner Steve, about his recent results on Zwift, including a stage win in the virtual Tour de France, we respond to a listener's letter about Greg LeMond's legacy and his reputation for innovation following our recent Friends of the Podcast episode about the 1990 Tour, and we briefly discuss the Everesting phenomenon.
