Egan Bernal & Tom Pidcock headline for INEOS Grenadiers at Liege-Bastogne-Liege
Cycling
After taking victory last weekend at the Amstel Gold Race, can the INEOS Grenadiers finish the Spring Classics on a high at Liege-Bastogne-Liege?
In the winner of the Amstel Gold Race, Tom Pidcock, INEOS take with them one of the viable challengers for pre-race favourites Mathieu van der Poel and Tadej Pogacar. Although the bad weather ended the Brit's hopes early at La Fleche Wallonne, confidence remains high within the INEOS Grenadiers team for their leader.
Another option for the INEOS Grenadiers on Sunday will be multiple Grand Tour winner Egan Bernal, who has shown some signs of a return to form in the earlier part of this season, including podiums overall at Gran Camino and the Volta a Catalunya. Michal Kwiatkowski, twice a podium finisher in Liege could also have an important role to play. Completing the side are Ethan Hayter, Omar Fraile, Laurens De Plus and Brandon Rivera.
INEOS Grenadiers for Liege-Bastogne-Liege 2024:

- MSR is the race that brings the Spring', proper for better or worse...

Obviously cyclist breathe far more than average humans which should help keep things cleaner, on the other hand if you don’t clean your nose well or use an infected finger … and then why bacteria and not viruses? I would prepare mentally for more testing if this doesn’t solve things. Teeth and gums are the most overlooked entry point for infectious agents. Ears and eyes can also be easily contaminated.Mistermaumau17-03-2025
- Yeah, sorry, some people forget a few facts like him being in a similar age category as Tadej, Jonas, Remco, Tom and that there are plenty of promising younger riders developing too so it’s really quite far-fetched based on current givens.Mistermaumau17-03-2025
- If they learnt from 2024 MVDP/JP strategy, yes, possibleMistermaumau17-03-2025
- Name another race with 20 different winners in the last 30 years. This is probably the single most influential fact that points towards Tadej, or will it be Mads, or a « newcomer »?Mistermaumau17-03-2025
- Nobody asked you and you have very little future prediction precedent. 20 years ago no-one predicted Slovenian cycling domination, Tadej, Trump, Manchester United replaced by City, the recent serial UK Tory leadership or the drastic demise of German Olympic performance. Unfortunately JJ probably won’t be around much longer so can’t be held « accountable » if wrong.Mistermaumau17-03-2025
- Also, note how fast a counter article appeared, either naturally or as part of a comm. strategyMistermaumau17-03-2025
- Not sure, remember where he is saying it and what this person did for him. Perhaps he was coaxed into saying something to stimulate US interest or provocative to improve you know who’s media significance.Mistermaumau17-03-2025
- Quite annoying to get all these silly partial arguments to predict results. If betting companies calculated odds this way, none would survive. If you look at MSR Tadej’s record isn’t great, 4 attempts without a win, he still needs to prove he has what it takes to win in the exact conditions that race provides. MVDP has and has shown he can counter Pog here. I think MVDP hasn’t done an early season stage race since 2021 and much has changed for both since, wouldn’t draw ANY conclusions except to say they both have good chances and everyone else don’t. But then again, it’s racing, anything can happen as time shows time and time again.Mistermaumau17-03-2025
