    Probably but he's been a bit of a late bloomer so it wouldn't surprise me if he stayed at the top a bit longer.

    Hoping Jayco stick with Purple, but Ocha would be a good colour as well

    I kinda want the top sprinters as spread out as possible. So hopefully Magnier or Merlier move end of next year

    Will be interesting to see where Kell fits in the Ackermann lead out. Should be the second last rider IMO

    Yeah, come to think of it Magnier should just join Jayco after 2027, they'd be unstoppable.

    Interested to see his program for next year. Will obviously get a chance at GC in stage races but will he be in support of Ben O'Connor in the GT's?

    Good to see. Hoping to see Hirschi or Kung out here but Storer probably the leader for the TDU, with Mayrhofer at the CEGORR

    Assuming the above is correct, not sure we have the depth to support two sprint trains. Capiot, De Bondt, Donaldson, Matthews, Mezgec, Schmid and O'Brien really the only ones who can do that sort of role, and when you consider four of them are going to have individual targets as well... Biggest...

    Looking at the riders on the men's side, I'd expect the top 35 or so to get a contract somewhere, with at least 7 sides short of the minimum for next season in Alpecin (19), Bahrain Victorious (25), Cycling Academy (25), EF (22), Lotto-Intermarche (18) and Jayco (22) There's 17 open spots (most...

    Yeah, but most of the ones considered above him at least have rumours as to where they might end up, or if they're staying. Oldani at 27 is entering his prime, cannot be at Cofidis as they've filled their roster and is a pretty handy guy as part of a lead out train as well as a good points...

    Any idea where Stefano Oldani will end up? Too good a rider not to get a contract at a PCT at a minimum IMO

    I agree, that would be the core group but in the past few years Howson, Storer and Ewan have featured in that side due to being there and their pro team electing not to come. Edit: As an aside, looking through the Nat teams in the past, the 2017 team with Meyer, Cal Scotson, L Hamilton, Storer...
