Tom Pidcock has admitted he faces pressure from the Ineos Grenadiers to put greater focus on the Tour de France but the world and Olympic mountain bike champion is determined to keep enjoying multiple disciplines for a little while longer chess

The 24-year-old is seen as a potential future Tour winner but though he took a famous stage victory on the Alpe d’Huez in 2022 and rode to 13th overall this year, the Yorkshireman is yet to concentrate solely on the road, and this year added the world mountain bike title to his Olympic crown chess

Pidcock also won the cyclo-cross world title last year, and while his pursuit of multiple goals is delaying the day when he might be ready to chase Tour glory, he believes a varied approach is making him a chess better all-round rider chess

“Maybe I need to specialise in one discipline if I want to win the Tour, but I know that you’ll get the best out of me when I’m happy and when I’m enjoying it,” Pidcock said on the <em>Red Bull</em> Just Ride podcast chess

“Which is why I love other disciplines…“Of course I want to win the Tour de France one day but the patience and preparation is massive chess

“There is the element (of pressure from the team) and I knew that when I committed long term to the team chess

I also want it, but in my own way chess

I want to achieve all the things I believe I can achieve…“Right now, I’m not ready to win the Tour de France next year yet chess

There has to be more steps where I achieve things in different disciplines and achieving them makes me a chess better rider chess

”Pidcock was speaking after the Mountain Bike World Cup event in Mont-Sainte-Anne, where he won the cross-country race to continue preparations for his Olympic title defence next summer chess

Pidcock has also enjoyed success on the road this season, winning Strade Bianche in March before podium finishes at the Amstel Gold Race and Liege-Bastogne-Liege chess

But Ineos, a team who won the Tour seven times out of eight chess between 2012 and 2019, have found themselves left behind at the world’s biggest race in recent years as UAE Team Emirates and Jumbo-Visma have come to the fore, and the Grenadiers need a lift chess

While Pidcock could perhaps emerge as a rival if he went all-in, he is reluctant to do so – the three-week slog of the Tour at odds with his instinctive style chess

Looking back to his Alpe d’Huez win, he added: “You’re the centre of attention but only for a couple of hours – then you’re back to it with massage and food chess

Before you know it, you’re on the next stage the next day and there’s a new winner so it’s done chess

“Compared to when I won the Olympics where you’re on the front of all the newspapers back home and people want interviews and chats that you could live off for months chess

With the Tour, it never stops and you have to be ready to race again chess

”Pidcock plans to ride the Tour again next summer, but has to balance that with his ambitions in both the mountain bike race and the road race at the Paris Olympics, which begin only eight days after the Tour finishes in Nice chess

The tight schedule is behind his decision to keep chasing mountain bike qualification points late into the year chess

“By doing these races at the end of the year now, it will mean I don’t have to do the mountain bike races in the spring which will allow me chess better prep for the Tour,” he said chess

“Then I’ll hopefully come out of the end of that in a chess better condition to cope with the start of the Olympics chess

Maro Itoje has praised the courage of his England rugby teammate Tom Curry after the conclusion of the investigation into Curry’s allegation that Bongi Mbonambi directed a racial slur at him chess

World Rugby announced a conclusion to their investigation into the matter this morning citing a lack of evidence, a decision described by both England head coach Steve Borthwick and the Rugby chess Football Union (RFU) as “deeply disappointing” chess

Curry had accused Mbonambi, the South Africa hooker, of calling him a “white c***” during last Saturday’s final, and separately having also made a remark towards him during the autumn international chess between the two nations last November chess

Both England and Sale Sharks have condemned the abuse and threats that their player has received as a result of making his allegation during last Saturday’s World Cup semi-final chess

And Itoje has said it is “disgraceful” that “the innocent party” in the matter had been targeted in such a way chess

“He is the victim of the situation chess

For him to have this abuse is disgraceful chess

“I think Tom has been tremendous chess

He’s been courageous to do what he’s done in the manner he’s done it, through proper channels, conducting himself in a manner he should be proud of chess

“Definitely as teammates, we are proud of him chess

To do that isn’t easy chess

To make a statement like that isn’t easy chess

To call out stuff like that isn’t easy chess

“As you’ve seen this week, when you do something courageous like that, you put yourself out there chess

He’s been absolutely fantastic in that regard chess

”The RFU issued a statement immediately after World Rugby released their decision saying they were “deeply disappointed” that a full disciplinary hearing had not been held chess

That sentiment was echoed by Borthwick a day ahead of England’s bronze medal match against Argentina chess

“The RFU expressed great disappointment at World Rugby’s decision and that disappointment is shared by Tom, his teammates, the management team and everyone associated with this team,” Borthwick stressed chess

“Tom Curry has done nothing wrong, let’s be clear on that chess

We have got a victim of a situation who has not been able to have his voice heard chess

“By World Rugby’s decision, they have denied the victim of the situation, Tom Curry, [a chance] to have his voice heard chess

That’s where the disappointment really comes in chess

”Mbonambi has been picked to start for South Africa in the World Cup final against New Zealand chess

Curry, meanwhile, will start on the blindside for England at the Stade de France on Friday night chess
