Tom Pidcock headlines INEOS Grenadiers' hunt for Liège-Bastogne-Liège title, Sivakov and Sheffield second options
CyclingSunday, 23 April 2023 at 01:00
INEOS Grenadiers have confirmed their lineup for the upcoming edition of Liège-Bastogne-Liège and will hope that Tom Pidcock shows his best form in what is the final spring classic.
The Briton has been struggling with long races over the spring and this will definitely be a challenge at La Doyenne. He's recently finished third at Amstel Gold Race but was underwhelming at La Flèche Wallone as he suffered with fatigue at the end, but will hope to be fresh for what should be his final day of racing for the foreseeable future.
Straight out of the Tour of the Alps comes Pavel Sivakov who rode to 7th and also Laurens de Plus, both of which will be well warmed up for the climbs. Magnus Sheffield, Michal Kwiatkowski, Omar Fraile and Connor Swift complete a lineup that is quite strong and where every rider may have a shot of attacking the race.
INEOS Grenadiers for Liège-Bastogne-Liège:
Laurens de Plus, Omar Fraile, Michal Kwiatkowski, Tom Pidcock, Magnus Sheffield, Pavel Sivakov and Connor Swift.

- Just making the note that it’s actually closer to 120 because most of it is consumed in the first 4 hrs, not evenly across 5 hrs up until the finish.crharnishphd04-12-2025

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
