I somewhat wonder aswell. Colnago engineer was on tape saying this bike wasnt meant for public, and not a single drop of engineering was thought of for the public market in mind making this bike, it was purely made with one goal in mind. I dont think this bike was made for marketing purposes, might be the case but doubt it for several reasons, its absolutely hell to set up etc.
Was rumbling about them having to recall it to factory after the camp to fit all the riders after measuring etc that took place there, which obviously this bike is hell for as you more or less have to custom make them.
Outside Pogacar which seems to have his, guess we will see soon enough what it truly is.
Maybe, they more or less bought Colnago so that might be the case.

We're only a couple of weeks into the season and as usual on here my boy Ivan Sosa is catching strays in random threads completely unprovoked. 17 wins. 17. Including Seven General Classifications.
8 if you include "Tour of Bihor - Bellotto", which of course I do.

If that is the reason then thats the most ridiculous strategy i've heard. u made a bike thats 20 watts faster and the business of cycling is now 5 races into the season yet no rider from the team is benefiting from it😖 Then whats the reason for introducing it on December

Tim Wellens enjoys supporting Tadej Pogacar but also needs to ride for himself occasionally: "Otherwise I don't think I would be able to push myself to the limit in training"
2024 was a good year for Tim Wellens who was in the thick of action during all the cobbled classics, became Belgian time trial champion and later went on to assist Tadej Pogacar in completing the Giro...

This is why Tadej needs to leave something for others. This time it will be the Giro and PR.

If you have multiple, strong riders you can't keep the team morale high and prevent them from riding for their success at the same time. Those guys have ambitions, they have ego. UAE have to manage it well, it has worked ok so far except Ayuso OFC.

There is ambition to get paid too. The main factor is they have an eddy merckx level cyclist going right now which should dispel the idea of personal ambition fitting into the team. There is no shame in being a top lieutenant in that circumstance especially when that’s what the contract they have requires.

This year, Pogi will leave:
Giro for Ayuso and Yates
One week stage races for Almeida (I don't know if he is happy though)
Minor classics and PR: Wellens, Politt, Narvaez
However I think Narvaez should have more opportunities but Pogi wants the Ardennes treble

interesting dynamic but lets be real they managed it way better than ok last year at least, stellar. Remove Pogacar and they still had the most wins etc and I believe Molano just contributed one sprint win or? Remarkable. The eating
From 81 to 5 - How many races did each World Tour team win in 2024?
When we look at the table of the most successful teams of 2024, we can conclude that there is a supremacy of the big projects over the other teams. UAE Team Emirates has achieved 81 victories this yea...

The ego thing is fascinating but Pogacar makes everyones job crystal clear and easy obv but even in races without him I suspect just cause they have so many, literally stacked and everyone knows it.
The ego thing becomes a little less detrimental - they know its top riders left, right and center and therefor nothing is given but earned, and dont bruise their ego in the same way if was not given a chance in lets say Lotto, you get my point. Just cause its so many stars there, the ego dont get harmed the same way i suspect. They know what they signed up for and who their teammates are and therefor nothing is given but earned on the day and they have the benefit often of numbers.
They really impressed in RVV last year, that was special even and even PR and Kurne, E3, Suisse etc they did really good.

It's still very far away and a lot of things can happen in the meantime (crashes, injuries, change of schedule etc)
MSR and RVV are races I'm most excited about in the first part of the season and I'm not looking past them.
