Four-time champion Chris Froome will miss this year's Tour de France after being omitted from the Team Ineos Grenadier line-up. LONDON: Four-time Tour de France champion Chris Froome and 2018 winner Geraint Thomas are glaring omissions from the formidable Team Ineos Grenadier line-up for this year's race.
Froome has been trying to get back to peak condition after he was involved in a high-speed crash at last year's Criterium du Dauphine which came close to ending his career."Chris is a legend of our sport, a true champion who has demonstrated incredible grit and determination to come back from his crash last year."We want to support him to compete for another Grand Tour title and the Vuelta gives him that little bit more time to continue his progress to the top level.
"Egan will once again target the yellow jersey in France and we are very excited to give last year's Giro winner, Richard Carapaz, his debut in this year's Tour also," said Brailsford. Froome had tried to prove he was ready for the Tour, which gets under way in Nice on Aug 29 having been postponed from its original date due to the coronavirus pandemic, in the Criterium.
