Alpecin-Deceuninck are the latest to announce the riders they will take on the Tour de France with and as expected, Mathieu van der Poel and Jasper Philipsen lead the charge.
Both Philipsen and van der Poel have built up a strong connection to each in recent times and the team will be hoping that once again the pair will click. Sprint wins are a possibility for both and also the Green Jersey for the Points Classification could be on the cards.
Alongside their star duo the likes of Ramon Sinkeldam, Silvan Dillier, Michael Gogl and Jonas Rickaert will be expected to help guide the leaders to success whilst Quinten Hermans and Soren Kragh Andersen could both hold out hope for stage success of their own.
Alpecin-Deceuninck for the 2023 Tour de France:
Mathieu van der Poel, Jasper Philipsen, Ramon Sinkeldam, Silvan Dillier, Michael Gogl, Jonas Rickaert, Quinten Hermans and Soren Kragh Andersen.

ChillingCyclist29-01-2026 - Yes, the timing of his decision was wrong because Visma couldn't hire another climber to replace him. But beyond details and secondary causes, IMHO, the main reason is he's lost the motivation to continue. He did the very best he could in 2025, winning epically the Giro and winning one stage of the Tour. So why keep going? no more goals.
maria2024202429-01-2026 - Oh here we go more Sherlock Holmes theorys. Let the lad retire and stop hounding him.Icon for holmes is a bit much lol . What has he really won!!!!!!!!! Dodgy teams and team mates come on probably the equivelant of a UK elite rider. I have just retired from UK time trialling scene. Suspect I will not get the press hounding me lol.paultryan200229-01-2026
- Look on the bright side, at least he wasn’t out for a training ride in MinnesotaJezla29-01-2026
- So if I understand right, they both overtook the 2nd amateur on the descent? The video is showing before, after or includes that overtaking?Mistermaumau29-01-2026

- WTF is this fool Denk talking about??? Remco is younger then Pogi? He's a year and a half younger, to be more exact, he's only 16 months younger from Pogi. I find the opinion of Remco, Redbull and other foolish farmers from Belgium fascinating: "If the winter goes perfectly for Remco he will be on Pogacar's level." No, he won't. Pogi will keep on winning again and again. there is not even 1% chance to beat the GOAT 🐐 !!!NikkoNicco29-01-2026
- Maybe, I’m just putting out possibilities in a very light story. Considering both amateurs had ample opportunity to exchange in depth with the media reporter, it seems they didn’t have all that much to say in the way of specifics. And the first rider who seemed so keen on getting his side of the latter part out somehow didn’t find the first part of any public interest. Did they overtake the 2nd amateur at some point? Is that explained/deductable or visible in the video? How long is the video and does it show the crash?Mistermaumau29-01-2026
- Maybe (together with the previous ones this month) just a warning to allow them to consider abandoning any plans? Who promised to deliver a top tier rider?Mistermaumau29-01-2026
- Is that what you see in the video? Then even my opinion of his humbleness was too lenient.Mistermaumau29-01-2026
