Last WT team to get a 2021 season win

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Astana go out in style with a first and second place.

 

[Bonimenier]

Intermarché almost taking their 2nd podium of the season!

 

[Anderis]

So now it's between Astana and Intermarche?

 

[tobydawq]

I can't believe I got into a heated argument for saying Intermarché would be the worst WorldTeam in the history of the WT... It seems like a pretty apt assessment now (and then).

 

[Breh]

meh, give them some time. If I recall correctly, WGG decided to become WT pretty late and Intermarche decided to jump in even latre and there were no real interesting targets left to sign. They'll definitely have to improve tho.

Europcar, IAM and some others were pretty abysmal WT teams aswell. Not to mention alot of races have been cancelled this season.

Actually I didn't know that Intermarché was a WT until I came to this thread!

 

[Wvv]

They had some bad luck tho. Pasqualon had tremendous legs when crashing in the final kms in the Omloop. Not that he would've won that day, but a close result and with races to come... Vliegen and De Gendt too with some physical setbacks, Planckaert didn't even get to race yet. Minali and Taaramae are quite disappointing (although they were a long shot from the start).

Eiking is decent, Van der Hoorn rides offensively and Danny van Poppel is doing really fine this spring. Their biggest potential, CX-rider Quinten Hermans, just started his season in Pais Vasco and already shows. Don't be surprised if he delivers good results in the Ardennes and gets a stage win in the Giro.

 

[Anderis]

Astana looking strong to take this.

Astana looking strong to take this.

Has that ever happened? A World Tour Team going a whole season without taking one single win? Not even some random cat.1 race?

No.

 

[tobydawq]

But before the season I did say that they were probably the worst ever WT team, but that was apparently being disrespectful...

 

[RedheadDane]

I would be surprised if they never get the odd win anywhere.

 

[Netserk]

And after that an even one.

 

[RedheadDane]

And then they might even get an irrational one.

 

[tobydawq]

And then the might even get irrational one.

Wow, advanced math lingo.

 

[RedheadDane]

Wow, advanced math lingo.

I totally did not have to double-check to see if I was using the correct term!

 

[Netserk]

And then they might even get irrational one.

One is not an irrational number, so I don't understand what you mean by "get irrational one". "Irrational one" doesn't exist.

One refers to win... It's called a pronoun.

Like in the sentence: "Did you see a bear today? Yes, I saw a blue one."

Of course you might be referring to her missing "an" and using her own medicine against her.

 

[RedheadDane]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

 

[Armchair cyclist]

Blue bears are about as common as irrational unities.

 

[Cannavaro]

And then they might even get an irrational one.

Maybe they have an imaginary win already.

 

[Netserk]

Of course you might be referring to her missing "an" and using her own medicine against her.

I couldn't possibly comment.

 

[SafeBet]

Tacoooooooooo

 

[RedheadDane]

Wanty officially wins this.

With an epic win, rather than an odd win.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Yes, I'm finally on the winning team in a poll!!!

Also, well done, Taco, well done
