Ibn ‘Abd al-Birr said:
The one who does ghusl to purify himself from janaabah, if he does not do wudoo’ but he makes water reach every part of his body, he has done what is required of him, because Allaah has enjoined upon the one who is in a state of janaabah to do ghusl, not wudoo’.

Remember though that there are many rewards in doing wudhu.

I heard somewhere that if one is in a state of wudu, and he hasn't done any ibadat with it, than it is israaf (wasteful) to perform a new wudu. If one wishes to pray with a fresh wudu, they shuld do a small ibadat and then renew wudu.
Ghusul puts you in a state of wudu, so doing another wudu after it maybe wasteful.
Sorry, I don't have a reference.
On another note, if you take a shower, you are in a state of wudu according to Ahnaaf, as all the farz bits get washed, and intention is not necessary. If you do mazmazah and istinshaq (putting water in your nose and mouth), your ghusul is also done as intention is again unnecessary,
according to Ahnaaf. (Info taken from al-Hidayah)
I don't know about the other mazhabs.
