'No-one wanted me there' – Tom Pidcock gives up break hunting at Tour de France to focus on general classification

Tom Pidcock has abandoned his strategy of chasing breakaway opportunities at the Tour de France, stating that 'no-one wanted me there' in the breaks. The Pinarello Q36.5 rider has shifted his focus to the general classification, where he sits eighth overall with three days remaining in the race. The decision marks a tactical pivot for Pidcock as he targets a strong overall finish rather than stage wins through breakaways.
