DSM talking about their favorite "teamwork" again. Saying that it's because they are building a strong team that they were letting Mayrhoffer sprint first. Whatever tf that means.

Lol, can't take those guys serious. Just stupid they didn't let Dainese sprint in every flat stage. Mayrhoffer is a good rider, but not a pure sprinter.
DSM isn't gonna admit their obsessive compulsive disorder! They've got thousands of euphemisms to sugarcoat it with toxic positivity.

Wasn't Vandenabeele supposed to race in the Giro, and Dainese only made the team after Vandenabeele's Covid illness?

Correct, they put Dainese in the doghouse because apparently he's "difficult to work with" and didn't mention him as one of their 3 sprinters at the pre-season press conference. I hope he goes to a team that values him more, when a team works for him as the designated leader he actually wins or podiums in WT stage races.

Yes and what Mayomaniac says above. Disrespected the kid, let him ride races that didn't suit him and now have the balls to say it was the plan all along and "teamwork". If Ewan wasn't still with Lotto next year I would immediately want him at Lotto. He's underrated and relatively cheap for a guy that can win GT sprints.

If Lefevre wants a cheap replacement for Jakobsen Dainese might be the right guy.
