In the second of this week's two episodes Richard Moore and Daniel Friebe report from Paris-Nice, with Richard then linking up with Lionel Birnie to discuss the other World Tour stage race currently on, Tirreno Adriatico.

With the recent races dominated by two teams, we ask whether Jumbo-Visma and UAE-Team Emirates are now on a different level to their rivals. And we look ahead to a Netflix documentary series that will focus on eight teams at the Tour de France. 

We hear from Frans Maassen of Jumbo-Visma and Matteo Trentin of UAE-Team Emirates, as well as , Ben O'Connor of Ag2r-Citroen and Owain Doull and Tom Southam of EF Education-EasyPost.
