Teams & Riders Team Visma - Lease a Bike

so, what about 2026 for Visma/Vingo?

Giro-Vuelta?

Judging from Pogacar hinting about "last tour" in the interviews, I think he will do Giro-Vuelta next year. Would be epic if both skipped the tour but that's never happening.

I hope he never rides the Giro. Tour-Vuelta is good enough for the rest of his career.

RCS shoudl just get that contract down that Pog and Vingegaard both race it and only get the massive bag of money if both race it.

Congrats to winning another grand tour to this team. Van Emden proper trash talking FDJ was funny, also curious to see as PFP riding for a Dutch Team while Vollering riding for a French team.

Roglic coming home? Would be amazing.

“I want to become a professional cyclist, and this brings me a step closer to that goal,” Mernik said. “As a kid, I already followed this team — Primoz Roglic has always been one of my biggest sporting heroes. I’ve seen the team grow into one of the best in the world, and I’m very proud to be joining it.”

On bici.pro, there's quite an interesting interview with Fiorelli's manager Paolo Alberati, talking about his role at Visma, and how he ended up there - with a surprising amount of details about the contract negotiations, like Patrick's Power Point presentations and Fiorelli's bonus payments when a team mate wins.

So how will Visma appraoch the next season schedule wise?
They have Vingegaard, S.Yates, Jorgenson, van Aert and Brennan, who will have their demands.

A lot will of course depend on the fact, if they send Vingegaard to the giro.
Brennan also deserves to ride a GT. I don´t think, that van Aert will again ride the giro this year...

Giro: Vingegaard
TDF: Vingegaard, Jorgenson, Yates, WVA
Vuelta: Jorgenson, Yates, Brennan

Giro: Vingegaard
TDF: Vingegaard, Jorgenson, Yates, WVA
Vuelta: Jorgenson, Yates, Brennan

This would be the most likely scenario, if Vingegaard goes to the giro, I agree. Although giro also offers a lot of opportunities for a rider like Brennan, with some hills at the end of some stages, which not every sprinter survives.. If Vingegaard will not go to the giro, it could be something like this:

Giro: Jorgenson, Yates, Brennan
TDF: Vingegaard, Jorgenson, Yates, WVA
Vuelta: Vingegaard
