Patchelicious Posted June 21, 2018 Share Consequence of the cut to 8 riders? Or them putting all their eggs in the GC basket? I am sure if Caleb was in great shape and was winning races, he would have been put in for a few stage wins. But I am not sure that he could win a stage looking at the competition, and the route for that matter. So whats the point of having a sprinter if he is unlikely to win a FEW stages?

lechatnoir Posted June 21, 2018 Share With the CE rumour-noise, I wonder what's the status with Andre Greipel at Lotto Soudal? He's always struck me as a stellar human being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kosmonooit Posted June 21, 2018 Share edit: I wonder what the story behind the story is.... Looks like a loose-loose situation... relationship gone south! they have spent years nurturing him, would be hard to believe that he got left out over spite due to him signing elsewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertusras Posted June 21, 2018 Share The likely destination looks to be Lotto-Soudal, with the Belgian team trying to sign a top-level sprinter as wins for the previously prolific André Greipel start to dry up with the German turning 36 during the Tour de France. Ewan has apparently already been offered a contract, but has not yet signed as he hopes his stock will rise with victories in the Tour in July.

fanievb Posted June 21, 2018 Share White said Ewan, 23, was left out for performance reasons. “Caleb had a solid start to the year with a stage win at Tour Down Under and a win in Europe in February, but he hasn’t won since February 11,” White said.“So the (sprint) train hasn’t worked as he would have liked and we would have liked a lot more wins between then and now. Caleb has had 17 sprints this year and won two. https://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/devastated-mitcheltonscott-backflip-on-decision-to-take-caleb-ewan-to-maiden-tour-de-france/news-story/8055efadcdd34482e7963bbde68bcc3c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
