Froome, 38, has not won a race since suffering devastating injuries in a crash in 2019, but rode to an impressive third on stage 12 of last year’s Tour on the Alpe d’Huez as Tom Pidcock took victory. “I respect the team’s decision and will take some time before refocusing on objectives later in the season and returning to the Tour de France in 2024.” Simon Yates has been included in the Team Jayco-Alula squad, and will aim to add to his two Tour stage wins, both collected in 2019. It’s the Tour, everyone wants to be a part of it, and every edition I start, is a real privilege.” The Tour begins next Saturday with a 182km stage that starts and finishes in Bilbao.
