Last WorldTour team to get a win 2025

[tobydawq]

It's that time of the year. Eight teams have now won, ten are missing. Who'll be last man standing?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Going to take a punt and go with Ineos. If (big if) Ganna/Tarling doesn't win the Bessèges TT at the end of next week, I'm not sure where a win is supposed to come from for them in February.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Alpecin

 

[tobydawq]

I went with Arkéa. Now watch Vauquelin put that to shame on Sunday.

 

[Samamba]

Yeah Marseillaise/Besseges will be important. I would say it's the best shot for Arkea, but also for Ineos to win quickly. Not sure if FDJ is going to win anything fast either tho, but they have some French races to win at.

 

[Breh]

Bahrain for me!

 

[Potomac]

I went looking for this thread earlier today, before it was created. Imagine my joy finding it now.

INEOS !!! FOR THE WIN...uhmm...for the distinction.

Normally I would choose the Vino option but I'm optimistic on that front.

Luckily, you waited for EF to get a win. Now @Anderis will have to vote for somebody else.

Well, you can only have ten options in a poll on this site, so I had to wait. Otherwise, I might have picked EF after their embarrassment of a performance Down Under.

 

[GenericBoonenFan]

Arkea has to be the favourite. If not I think Astana or Intermarché

 

[RedheadDane]

Just to be clear.
When it says that the poll will close on Feb 20, does that mean that that'll be the last day you'll be able to vote, or that you'll have to vote before that?

 

[Anderis]

I don't think I was going to vote for EF this year.

 

[repre]

Voted Ineos. They kinda went AG2R-2020 way for having many riders whom can make top-5, but not really win

 

[Peyroteo94]

Voted Astana.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Surprised that Bahrain-Only Victorious In Big Races Because We Don't Race Anything Else are this far down in the voting.

They will ride more races this year.

I'm a bit thick.

 

[Anderis]

Ag2r - Seixas, Marseillaise

Would be quite something for an 18 years old to win his first pro race.

Any examples of something like that in the past?

Del toro almost last season I suppose, jokey pick obviously but I’m still very bullish on Paul, perhaps they will let him go thinking who is this clown.

Albert wasn’t far off in down under but Lidl went for the coveted Movistar 5 leader strategy instead.

 

[RedheadDane]

Wait... what?

 

[Anderis]

Del Toro wasn't 18 last season.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Wait... what?

It was his first year after riding for a random Mexican team, he counts as an 18 year old

 

[tobydawq]

I went with Arkéa. Now watch Vauquelin put that to shame on Sunday.

Looking at the start list for tomorrow's race, Vauquelin should be the outstanding favourite...

5th, not too far off, looked super strong but the front threw it in the final

 

[RedheadDane]

The teams in the poll aren't really aiding my plan of only voting once more teams have won.
What with the not winning...
