Leaving aside the fact that it has covered TdF for decades, brilliantly, and has been part of cycling's growth in the UK, moving behind a pay channel will massively impact engagement.
Most won't pay a full subscription for the few grand tours.
Personally I've loved the itv TdF and is a July highlight every year. I've been to see a few stages over the tears too.
Big loss 😥
