So, Storm got moved down to conti level (again), this time the new Ineos academy team. This means that his initial 3-year-contract he signed ahead of last year is essentially void.
It also means that the WT team now have 2 more spots available...

I mean obviously it's not actually "void", he still got paid, basically for rehabilitating 2 years.

But yeah it's been known Storm wasn't actually going to be in the WT team, he just isn't ready (even if we forget his medical problems, he should've never gone to Ineos, ridiculously stupid mistake, one that I still don't understand, and probably never will).

It's void in the sense that he never got to ride for the team.
Besides, surely he got paid by Kern-Haus this year.

Though, I do wonder what the situation would have looked like if they'd stuck to the original plan: ColoQuick last year, Ineos this year.
And of course, then ColoQuick wouldn't have signed Øxenberg to replace him, and then Øxenberg wouldn't have taken the Coll de Rate record, proving that he exists....

(Just to be clear, I'm not saying you need to have that record to prove your existence.)
