Tour Auvergne - Rhône-Alpes 2026 | Watts Occurring

Luke Rowe and Geraint Thomas (and their teams) both had eventful weeks at the Tour Auvergne - Rhône-Alpes . Luke was there with France’s biggest Tour de France hope in a generation, Paul Seixas, who didn’t start the final stage due to a crash the day before. G’s Netcompany Ineos Team came close to winning the TTT but both Oscar Onley and Josh Tarling failed to finish the race after crashes. Luke and G discuss what they learned from the race and how it might affect the Tour de France.
