Starts today, as always really looking forward to the mountain stages and an added bonus of a final stage Time trial.

Also an interesting sort of City v rags team match up with a UAE v Ineos as the top two teams.

Not forgetting Sir Cav going for it for one last time. Come on Cav!

Ineos is a middle ranking team now. Let us hope Jim is equally successful with the rags.

I don't follow road cycling very much apart from this big tour but, the UAE are favourites for the team classification with Ineos second favs.

Team classification is a minor category as it includes domestiques. Even so, I don’t think Ineos will be close to UAE.
The real strength of a team is shown by the major individual stuff: Stage wins, Overall classification, King of Mountains, Sprint classification. Can’t see Ineos featuring in those.
(Cav does not ride for Ineos.)
