quote from his manager that it would be less pressurising than going to the Vuelta and being expected to win it.
Is anyone really expecting that, apart from his manager? The number of riders who've won their debut GT can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
I could be wrong, but I'd be very surprised if Sky took the risk of trying to win the Tour with a team of just eight riders and include Bernal in that selection.

was reported in Cyclingnews, with quote from his manager that it would be less pressurising than going to the Vuelta and being expected to win it.
Wasn't sure myself but he's not starting the Dauphine so follows what was reported...
