Geraint Thomas calls Ellingworth's Ineos resignation 'gutting' and 'surprising'

Geraint Thomas had worked with Rod Ellingworth for two decades across British Cycling, Team Sky, and Ineos Grenadiers.

Geraint Thomas has called Rod Ellingworth's resignation from his deputy team principal role at Ineos Grenadiers "gutting" and "surprising", saying that "he'll definitely be missed" at the British squad.

Thomas is the first rider to publicly speak out since Ineos Grenadiers confirmed that Ellingworth was leaving last Friday.
