British cyclist Mark Cavendish.
Thirty-five-year-old Cavendish, who has thirty stage laurels at the Old Lady, completed the Tour continuously from 2007 to 2018. Last year, however, as a teammate of Roman Kreuziger, he did not receive confidence from the management of the Dimension Data team (now NTT). After the season, he moved to a new place of work, but the Tour will not go this time either.
The main role will be played in the colors of Bahrain-McLaren by 30-year-old Landa, who will race for the fifth year in a row. In the previous three years, he finished fourth, seventh and last sixth.

“This year’s race should fit Mikel very well and his form is excellent,” team boss Rod Ellingworth said in a press release. “We then selected a group of competitors who are well prepared for the Tour and can be as beneficial to him as possible in this profile,” added Ellingworth.
