Former pros express concern over Alaphilippe's Tour de France form

Former professionals Jerome Coppel and Jerome Pineau have raised serious concerns about Julian Alaphilippe's performance and subdued demeanor at the 2026 Tour de France. They suggest the two-time world champion has lost his characteristic aggression and 'joy for life'.

Given Jerome Pineau's comments, is Julian Alaphilippe's current form a temporary dip or the beginning of a permanent decline for the former champion?
