“Dave\u2019s return has been vital for the team\u2019s future,” the agent said. “He has always delivered: he showed his talent when he helped Great Britain dominate on the track, then vowed to win the Tour de France with a British professional team, and he achieved all of that.”<\/p>\n

INEOS Grenadiers dream of recapturing their Team Sky dominance with new sponsorship<\/p>\n
Rival WorldTour teams also view the arrival of new resources at the British outfit positively. A sports director from another team explained that long-term sponsorship can support both the development of young talent and the signing of established stars: “INEOS finding a new sponsor is great news for the team, but also for cycling as a whole.”<\/p>\n
Although INEOS has not enjoyed the same prominence in Grand Tours in recent years, many within the peloton note that cycling\u2019s dynamics can shift quickly. “There are times in sport when a team may lack a marquee Grand Tour contender or the means to sign and develop one. But cycling is always cyclical – the wheel keeps turning. If a team has solid management and staff, and finds the right sponsors, it can rebound quickly.”<\/p>\n
Recruiting to take on Pogacar<\/p>\n
Even with a bigger budget, reclaiming Tour de France dominance will be no simple task as long a rider of the qualities of Tadej Pogacar is active. Still, some agents believe the project has enough scope to rebuild over the next few years.<\/p>\n
“Tadej Pogacar is a generational talent, so it won\u2019t be easy even for Dave to win the Tour in the coming years, but I\u2019d bet that the new version of Team INEOS will win it soon and certainly before 2030.”<\/p>\n
The same agent concluded by noting that, although the team may not yet have the ideal Grand Tour leader, he trusts the British structure will eventually find one. “Dave may not yet have the ideal rider to do it, but he\u2019ll find a way to win the Tour again, I\u2019m sure.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In his view, the financial boost will allow them to rebuild a winning project. “If they get…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":539224,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[569],"tags":[64,63,784,23065,66980,85],"class_list":["post-539223","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cycling","tag-dave-brailsford","tag-ineos-grenadiers","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/539223","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=539223"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/539223\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/539224"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=539223"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=539223"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=539223"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
