"A stage win is absolutely possible" - Uno-X Mobility ready to take next step after Tour de France return is confirmed

With the allocation of the Tour de France's wildcard invitations being confirmed, Uno-X Mobility can begin to prepare for another crack at the most-watched cycling race on the calendar.

"From a sporting point of view, it is the team that is first in line for the Wild Card. They proved last year in their Grand Tour debut that they very much deserve a place there, so it's nice to see them get it," analyses Discovery's Scandinavian cycling expert, Theis Magelssen. 

Having had a rider placed in the top-10 on no fewer than nine different stages, Uno-X came close, but couldn't quite manage to claim a stage win. Having added one of the peloton's premier stage hunters in Magnus Cort Nielsen among others, the team are now even better placed to compete for victories at the 2024 edition of the race believes Magelssen.

"That's almost what they brought him in for, in addition to the fact that he has a Danish passport and is a great cyclist. He can do exactly what he wants in July, pick stages and is guaranteed to break," Magelssen says of the 31-year-old, seven-time Grand Tour stage winner. "They were not that far away from a stage win last year. There is a lot to be said for the stages, and all the best in the world will win. Maybe they are a little closer this year and the margins are on your side sometime in the 21 days. A stage win is absolutely possible."
