INEOS Grenadiers CEO John Allert: "Our objective is to finish as close as possible to the final podium, in any Grand Tour"

INEOS Grenadiers continue to be cycling's highest budget team. However, they're dominance from the 2010's lays very distance, and currently the British team seek to surge from within the strongest teams in the peloton.
“We can say that nowadays we are no longer the prey, but the hunter. That provides a slightly different view. We have clearly transitioned to a new form of leadership," team CEO John Allert told GCN. "We have a nice selection and have started the season well. I feel a lot of optimism within the team and cycling. But everyone can see that we have some excellent classification riders in our ranks."
The new team leader reports motivation starting the new year, and is more than aware of it's role. Aiming for a Grand Tour victory is not a realistic ambition into the upcoming Grand Tours, but goals are clear: “I believe we have good riders for the general classification, including two former Tour winners."
"But we also have some phenomenal riders from the new generation in our team. Our objective is to finish as close as possible to the final podium, in any Grand Tour. Whether that is for this year or next year remains to be seen. The competition is stiff, but we embrace that," he concluded.

- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
