Romain Bardet will resume his 2020 season at La Route d'Occitanie on Saturday as part of a strong AG2R La Mondiale line-up that also includes Pierre Latour

Both Bardet and Latour have been linked with moves away from AG2R La Mondiale in recent weeks but the two Frenchmen will lead Vincent Lavenu’s squad at the rescheduled Tour de France, which gets underway on August 29.

Cyclingnews is the world's leader in English-language coverage of professional cycling. Started in 1995 by University of Newcastle professor Bill Mitchell, the site was one of the first to provide breaking news and results over the internet in English. The site was purchased by Knapp Communications in 1999, and owner Gerard Knapp built it into the definitive voice of pro cycling. Since then, major publishing house Future PLC has owned the site and expanded it to include top features, news, results, photos and tech reporting. The site continues to be the most comprehensive and authoritative English voice in professional cycling.
