The eight-man Belgian team will be led by Dutchman Mathieu van der Poel and Belgian top sprinter Jasper Philipsen, both of whom are in the hunt for stage wins.

Dillier is the third Swiss rider to be called up for this year's Tour de France after Stefan Küng (Groupama-FDJ) and Stefan Bissegger (EF Education-Easy Post) from Thurgau.
