Paris-Nice: Ineos Grenadiers win stage 3 team time trial while Juan Ayuso takes GC lead with second-placed Lidl-Trek finish

An impressive team performance brought Ineos Grenadiers victory on the stage 3 team time trial at Paris-Nice, beating Lidl-Trek by 2.5 seconds in Pouilly-sur-Loire on Tuesday. It was their first victory in the discipline they once dominated for five years.

British TT star Josh Tarling did the lion’s share of the work, benefitting their new GC signings for 2026, Kévin Vauquelin and Oscar Onley, with the Frenchman stopping the clock as their first rider across the line.
