Cycling Term - T D F....

Just watching the TDF highlights. What is the name for a group of riders from different teams that work together at the back to avoid elimination. Usually the sprinters in the mountain stages. I have googled but all I get is a load of things I'm not looking for. Thanks.🚴‍♀️

Gruppetto – A group of riders that form at the back of the field on mountain stages, who ride at a pace that allows them to finish just inside the time limit (see Time Cut).

That wasn't the one I had in mind but it does mean the same. I googled that and it also said "Autobus" - that was the one I was thinking of. Thanks.
