New direction? or just normal team turnover?

Porte sounds like a good shout for them though. Along with Yates.

Pidcock is super up and coming, but is he better than Bernal, nah, not really. But i think as a spring classics kind of guy, like a WVA or MvdP then he's in with a chance, but INEOS haven't really focused on that kind of riding in the past. Sure they've had decent results with Stannard and Thomas but it's not their bread and butter. I have no idea if Tom will make a long 3 week climber though yet.

Porte will make an awesome 2nd rider, bringing experience in masses, but they have loads of that anyway.

As yet, i have no idea where they're going with all of this.
