🏳️ Oscar Onley
§ 01 · The season so far
Arc
Oscar Onley brought his GC ambitions to the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes (the rebranded Critérium du Dauphiné) in June with the team racing as Netcompany–INEOS. He sat in the top ten through the first half — comfortably in the front group on the stage-1 hilly finish at Saint-Ismier and well placed after INEOS's strong stage-3 team time trial — before the high mountains and the race-altering stage-6 split moved him down the order. The week served as a Tour de France build-up rather than a result in itself, with the team's GC focus ultimately split across Onley and Kévin Vauquelin.
