All almost the eve of the gravel world championship, the British team Ineos Grenadiers is very close to the recruitment of Pauline Ferrand Prévot, former world champion on road, as well as cyclocross and MTB. The Frenchwoman is aiming for a historic record these days, if she wanted to win the gravel world championship too. Surely his commitment does not seem to be on the road but it could be a first approach for the definitive approach to off-road, given the many results of Tom Pidcock.
Prevot currently runs with Absolute - Absalon - BMC but it has been a few months since there has been no agreement. Will Ineos be just a partner to allow Prevot to have a budget to set up their team? And the bike as it will be seen that Pinarello, supplier of the road team, does not produce MTB bikes (so much so that Pidcock currently runs on a debranded BMC). We will soon have the answer to all these questions.
