Race leader Greipel to work for Gallopin
He wears the leader's jersey on stage 2 of the Tour of Britain, but Andre Greipel is set to ride in support of Lotto Soudal teammate Tony Gallopin on the key stage from Carlisle to Kendal.
"We have to see today because it's never easy to control the bunch with just six guys. We'll see which teams take the responsibility," Greipel told Cyclingnews.
