Thomas had won the Tour de France in 2018. He has been riding with his current team since 2010. “Even though you should never say never, for me, this is my last contract,” said the cyclist. “I would have never continued with another team.”

His goal in 2024 will be to remain competitive. Thomas is open to anything: returning to the classics, aiming for the general classification of a grand tour, or helping the younger riders. “I just want to have a positive impact on the group,” added the winner of the 2021 Tour de Romandie.
