  • Homesick from where? He lives in france.

    Think as andy said, he just want's to be his own man. Not the teams man.

  • During the Tour there was a lot of discussion about how his form had improved hugely since he'd moved back to Brittany, but I think it had maybe put him at odds with his team a bit.

    Fortuneo-Oscaro are based there so he's going to be by far the biggest name in a home-town, home-country team, who can achieve their main objectives of publicity, stage wins and GT invitations.

    At Sunweb, he'd be away from home, below a few GT contenders/sprinters in the pecking order, and expected to work for others, which he clearly doesn't enjoy much.

  • Yeah didn't know this. Not sure how someone can be home sick from Brittany, maybe he likes his friends!

    And no, if the Vuelta is anything to go by!
