Intermarché–Circus–Wanty did not have the same success as in 2022 but they had some decent performances for Rui Costa who won a stage at the Vuelta Espana and the Japan Cup in his final race for the team.
There were big ambitions for Biniam Girmay in 2023 but he had bad luck crashing at Tour of Flanders, however bouncing back at the Tour de Suisse to win a stage in front of Wout van Aert and at the Tour de France he was in the pointy end of several stages but just a bit unlucky not to win a stage. Nevertheless with another year he will be stronger than ever.

Lidl-Trek had a strong 2023 season with Mads Pedersen as the headliner but for the 2024 season the team have brought in reinforcements in the form of Jonathan Milan, Tao Geoghegan Hart and more to make the squad more all-round.
Mads Pedersen had plenty of top results and will be looking for monument success and could be the rider to look for as well in the Tour de France.
Mattias Skjelmose equally will look to build on his 2023 success where he won the Tour de Suisse and second in Fleche Walloone.
