The Tour Down Under will host, for the first time, the World Tour peloton in 2024. The race will showcase the debut of new jerseys from various World Tour teams, although the colors of three teams were inadvertently revealed ahead of schedule.
The race organizers released a provisional start list on their website, including the names of the teams and the jerseys for most of them. Among the teams, Team Jayco AlUla, EF Education-EasyPost, and Groupama-FDJ stood out, as they had not yet publicly revealed their new jersey designs.
Although this leak was later corrected, it did not go unnoticed by the keen eyes of fans of the respective teams.
