They also make glue...Hopefully unlimited amounts of silicone to spray into Lefevre's mouth so we never have to hear his *** again
Degenkolb and than Kristoff. Both for the sprints and classics.Who's the next guy Lefevre will resurrect and turn into a winner - Bouhanni, Degenkolb, Biniam Ghirmay Hailu (just looking through PCS list of sprinters)?

Hopefully Fabio Jakobsen
Would be great for him to win at the Vuelta and come to the Tour next year and dominate. That would be one of the biggest comebacks, maybe even biggest with Lemond.Jakobsen
(lol beaten to it)
I didn't think it looked easy, the whole team looked like it was now or never from far, far out.It was incredible how easy they made that look from 30km out.
Well, the latter signed for Intermarché, soo.....Who's the next guy Lefevre will resurrect and turn into a winner - Bouhanni, Degenkolb, Biniam Ghirmay Hailu (just looking through PCS list of sprinters)?
I heard he gets 1 million per TdF sprint stage win.What's Cavendish's salary now?
I think the sponsors and Quickstep will be writing some huge bonus checks
If he wins a couple more stages it could be 5M Euros or more in bonuses
I'm not necessarily a big Pati LeFlave-Flave fan, but the dude has pumped out winners for 30 years (you'll have to google/wiki check me because I don't remember exact years. but MG, then Mapei (which became all of the QS teams)). Have there been some 'lower' times, sure, but show me a team that doesn't have ups and downs over a long period. He definitely tired to keep the old ways longer than many of his peers though.I mean they are putting out quite a bit of Youtube content these days.
Other than that, I really start to wonder how much of Quicksteps succes over the last years has to do with Lefevre running that team or rather a great team around/just underneath Lefevre running the ship succesfuly despite Lefevre. After all Quickstep was a fairly mediocre team 10 years ago until HTC collapsed and they picked up a lot of their staff and those pushed them to modernize and adapt to modern cycling.
As if that's not enough, he was the DS at MG before that.really?

That's 22 consecutive years leading the team ranking.
Let that sink in.
Isn't Cavendish paying his own way? Or at least has convinced a sponsor outside of Quickstep to pay his salary while he races this year? Like joining the team but not drawing a salary from team sponsors?What's Cavendish's salary now?
I think the sponsors and Quickstep will be writing some huge bonus checks
If he wins a couple more stages it could be 5M Euros or more in bonuses
It was this but there was rumors he and PL we’re talking to each other about a new contract that pays more. That information hasn’t been disclosed.Isn't Cavendish paying his own way? Or at least has convinced a sponsor outside of Quickstep to pay his salary while he races this year? Like joining the team but not drawing a salary from team sponsors?
I think one of Lefevere’s columns a while back said Cav was on a very low salary, but with very healthy win bonuses. There was some reading-between-lines that hinted that the renegotiation Cav wanted was because the original contract didn’t consider the possibility of him riding the Tour.Isn't Cavendish paying his own way? Or at least has convinced a sponsor outside of Quickstep to pay his salary while he races this year? Like joining the team but not drawing a salary from team sponsors?
really?

And a bit meaningless to go back and list the years without Lefevere.Lol, it's a glitch. You can do the same for Rabobank and see how they were supposedly 2nd each year because Jumbo-Visma is 2nd now.
Bother to read all comments, thanks.Lol, it's a glitch. You can do the same for Rabobank and see how they were supposedly 2nd each year because Jumbo-Visma is 2nd now.
