RIDERS TO WATCH

Edvald Boasson Hagen

The Norwegian will be hoping to resurrect his career at a lower level. He has ample experience to contest small group sprint finishes, and will hope that he thrives in a less pressured environment.

Pierre Latour

Once tipped as French cycling’s next big thing, he was 13th at the Tour in 2018 but went off the boil recently at Ag2r, albeit often working for Bardet. Here, he will be the leader in stage races.
