Pauline Ferrand-Prévot expected to join Visma | Lease a Bike in 2025 as INEOS Grenadiers refuses to set up a women's team
Cycling
After two seasons as INEOS Grenadiers’ only female rider, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot is set to join Visma | Lease a Bike in 2025 as she eyes a return to road after many years spent chasing her Olympic dream in MTB, WielerFlits report.
It was recently announced that Ferrand-Prévot will retire as a mountain biker after next summer's Olympic Games. And her record in the discipline is not a bad one. She became world champion four times in the Olympic XCO. She also added two European titles and two world titles on the Short Track, the shorter format.
Ferrand-Prévot has been competing for INEOS Grenadiers since October 2022, with which she is working towards the Olympic mountain bike competition this summer.
The French lady expressed earlier that she wouldn't have been opposed to continue in colours of the Brittish formation, but as there don't seem to be any plans of setting up a women's team for 2025, Ferrand-Prévot has to look elsewhere. That means Ineos Grenadiers will continue being one of the few men's WorldTour teams not to have a women's equivalent.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
