“The team has shown already this year just how strong and competitive it can be,” said deputy team principal Rod Ellingworth.
He added: “The younger riders have stepped up and surpassed the mark we originally set for them, and it’s been energising for every member of the team.”
Ineos have won several early-season races in 2022, including the one-day ‘Monument’ Paris-Roubaix, thanks to Dylan van Baarle.
The team have a strong record in the three-week race – which begins in Budapest in Hungary on 5 May – with Colombian Egan Bernal winning in 2021 and Britain’s Tao Geoghegan Hart victorious the year before.

Tulett, 20, will play a support role for his first Grand Tour, which has 21 stages, 18 of which will take place in Italy after the three-day start in Hungary.
