Ineos Grenadiers will remain committed to ensuring the Tour of Britain returns to the professional calendar in 2024 and beyond, according to new CEO John Allert after the race’s future was plunged into doubt due to financial issues.
The Tour of Britain’s former organiser, SweetSpot, entered ‘voluntary liquidation’ earlier this month after facing upwards of £1million in legal claims. The British company ran the race from its modern 2004 revival until 2023, but British Cycling withdrew its deal allowing SweetSpot to organise the race this past November after allegations were made that the company owed around £750,000.
