INEOS leaves Pidcock out of Lombardia and increases rumors about their breakup

The relationship between INEOS Grenadier and Tom Pidcock did not seem to be at its best, and what has happened this afternoon only increases the rumors of a breakup. Pidcock has been left out of the team selected for Il Lombardia and the British cyclist has taken to social media to express his discontent.

Pidcock will not be in Lombardia and it doesn't seem to have sat well with him

Just a few hours ago we published an article about the different options that Tom Pidcock has open and how the rumors of a breakup with INEOS seem more true than ever. Well, everything has accelerated this afternoon when the British cyclist made a post on his Instagram account saying that INEOS had removed him from the team selected for Lombardia.

"Things were improving after a turbulent end of the year, but I have been deselected for tomorrow in Lombardia. I am in good shape and was really looking forward to it! Good luck to the guys, I guess my off-season has started early. Thanks for the support from everyone, even in difficult times."

The truth is that INEOS's decision has been surprising as Pidcock arrived in great form after finishing second in the Giro de Emilia just behind Pogacar.
