"Roger and I have known each other for many years. We used to race against each other on the bike. After that, we worked together in very different constellations and for many seasons. It's great that our paths have now crossed again. I appreciate Roger's very professional race preparation and his strong race analyses. I am delighted that he is strengthening our team of Sports Directors."
