No doubt about this. DCQ will evolve into a GC team around Evenepoel. But keeping a few sprinters (Ballerini, Jacobsen) and cobblestone riders (Lampaert...). The "has beens" and/or to expensive riders will have to leave the succesfull team of Lefevere ......and fail on another team.

It just looked weird on Sunday watching the closing stages of a flat sprint finish without a posse of blue DQS jerseys all over the front 4 rows of riders dominating.
Looking forward to seeing how Evenepoel/Almeida/Masnada combine to cause chaos in the hilly medium mountains.

Isn't that mostly speculation that they are the other team that ride Specialized?
I sincerely hope he doesn't as Quickstep will still have good squads for all the Classics and he'd disrupt that. Also his quest for green would interfere with Remco's bid for yellow.

Ok thats possible, i just saw it somewhere and it didn't sound completely unrealistic although i agree with your arguments against it.

He's suddenly become more affordable.
Quick-Step renews its partnership with the team for another 6 (!) years.

And they renew Mørkøv's contract for two years. Some sprinter is going to love that news.

That is putting some trust in Evenepoel.
First time they have such a long sponsor deal.
"Everyone is dreaming of a Belgian winning the TdF. We'll do everything we can to make that happen"

Lovely news. Some people don't like the Wolfpack and Lefevere, but they are of great value to the sport. As a Belgian I hope they will succeed in their ultimate goal.

Rumors of Nibali joining next year as a helper just keep coming up. Suddenly it doesn't sound quite so bizarre.

Otoh, seems like Deceuninck is stopping.
So... they lost their windows, but at least they still have a floor...

Quickstep getting drunk with some alcohol free beer
This confirms that Remco struggles with high percentages and will be dropped on Zoncolan.

Great news, been around since about when I started following cycling passionately so seeing the one sponsor through it all continue when so many others drop out eventually is a really good sign for the sport as a whole. Now let's see which excuses Lefevre can come up now to keep the wages low and let star riders go

I'm just looking forwards to many more years of weird floor photos.
As anyone read or saw Lefevere’s today’s press declarations? If so where can I find it in English? Just saw in Eurosport some comments about it and it blew me away. So I want to see it for myself before jumping conclusions

Is this it? Doesn't seem that controversial.
Deceuninck - Quick-Step calculated that Remco Evenepoel could afford to lose time and will withdraw young Belgian 'when he is empty'
The Deceuninck - Quick-Step boss says the team never got carried away with what the young Belgian could achieve this Italian Grand Tour

It would help if you told us what it was about. I saw a video interview with him yesterday, but he didn't say anything earth shattering there, so i have no idea. Basically what
Carrick-On-Seine posted is a transcription of that interview.

The only "wrong" thing I get from that interview is more mixed signals from DQS.
If they weren't expecting for Remco to blow everyone away and are proceding with caution, why take him there to fight for the GC and not just hunt some stages and get some race miles on his legs? Why have an entire team dedicated to him? Why doesn't he let Almeida have a free role at least?
The actions don't match the words.
