    Teams & Riders The Red Bull - Bora - Hansgrohe team thread

    The cobbled classic season is over with a bang - what a race yesterday. Last year the classics team was the weakest part of the Bora team. Lets see how this year played out. ONH - 2nd place for Tim van Dijke and 7th for Jordie Meeus KBK - 10th place for Jordi Meeus Ename Samyn Classic - win...

    Would be a good fit. More and substantial leader roles compared to Red Bull. Salary could be on the same level, weaker in team competition and high possibility to go to the Tour as domestique, lead a Grand Tour and one or two of the big 7 one week stage races. To me this makes sense.

    Racing can be so good without the two super humans van der Poel and Pogacar. Imagine one of them were there, we only had seen one rider in front with a camera... What a brilliant race today

    No coordinated chase in the peleton. I´m thinking they will only fight for the third place

    Seems to be true, as Pithie (if I can trust my eyes) is closing a gap at the front right now. Maybe they attacked in the 2nd Peloton and for example Bora called Marit back to bring Pithie to the front again.

    Well, what do you expect? It is between the most important cobbled classic races, so all of those riders are not able to ride in Spain, the Giro squad will be in altitude training (do you expect them to sacrifice the Giro for a one week stage race?) The riders who are eligible are the riders who...

    Hindley is showing some good climbing legs before the Giro and Tuckwell is already a climber on world tour level. Promising for his future if he is able to stick to the best 25 climbers in a race like this, especially when you did a lot of work the day before

    I have the feeling that RBH is linked to every rider who could possible switch teams after this season... For De Lie it would be best to stay or go to a team were he is the clear leader and can set his own schedule. I do see limited value in De Lie when is not the leader. So Lotto or SOQ would...

    Well that is Kind of a Strange result in the 1.1 Race Trofeo Oro in Euro… It feels Like the Level below the world Tour Teams is so weak, that some world Tour Teams can do what they want in a 1.1. Race. UAE and Fenix were nearly the only competitive Teams there, ok some UNO X, but then? Are...
