Teams & Riders Team Visma - Lease a Bike

[Tim Cahill]

They should deduct them just enough points to make relegation look likely, get the entire tour winning squad sprinting for top 10s with De Lie and Kristoff in some Belgian carpark.

Not only Jonas Vingegaard, but also Milan Vader is returning to racing at the Cro Race tomorrow

 

[Lequack]

They are switching to SRAM next year

Most interesting point from that would be to know whose preferences get priority in the pecking order.

I don't think there's that much of a pecking order. If one of them clearly says "I wanna go Giro" i think they get it, if they both want Tour they both go to the Tour, where Vingegaard is gonna be #1. I do think if one of them goes Giro they will be expected to double up and domestique in the Tour. Van Aert probably also gets a choice, but for him the difference is probably more freedom in the Giro.

I don't think any of them will suddenly demand sole leadership or ask to go Giro/Vuelta or something like that.

Leaves a critical choice for Roglič at this phase of his career.

Jonas Vingegaard must be Thomas Öberg's secret illegitimate son. Just missing the mask and the traffic cone.

Seen the trailer yesterday. At least Rogla is still in it. We'll see.

What if it's jsut 10% Tour de France bid and 90% Tom Dumoulin soul searching ending in retirement and divorce?

Yikes. So you’re saying you guys want help when you’re the strongest team by far. Got it.

 

[Netserk]

At first I assumed that it is about the 14 riders group with 6 Jumbo riders and De Lie that formed during Omloop, but reading it again it seems to be about the chase of the breakaway before that.

One rider gives an opinion, headline: "Jumbo Visma complains about Lotto tactics". And the angry mob follows suit.

 

[KZD]

5 wins during the weekend and Roglic and Van Aert are not racing yet. Scary.

Obviously.

Strangely, reads as “ALIEN”.

Sounds about right.

I guess the relegation scare is off.

It's easy when you don't have to ride for Belgian Pozzato and your riders can actually attack

A bit disrespectful to Van der Sande to compare him to a mediocre rider like Pozzato.

Meanwhile

reminds me of

Jumbo-Visma finished third and fifth at Strade Bianche but their confused tactics drew blunt criticism from Matej Mohoric, who said they lost the race because Atilla Valter did not work for Tiesj Benoot.
