They should have made the announcement in August.
Three year deal for the 18 year old: https://www.ineosgrenadiers.com/article/andrew-aj-august-turns-pro-with-the-ineos-grenadiers
This signing is going to render a verdict whether Ineos still can develop general classification prospects or all other gc talents either stayed away or even left like Tao for good reason!
It's not.
Or let me phrase this differently: how will you determine whether they have succeeded or not?
You asked how it would be possible to determine whether they [Ineos] have succeeded in developing GC talents. Well... we can't. Not now. But, in 5 years, it might just be possible.
My question still stands. How will you determine whether they succeeded in developing him? Does he need to win a grand tour, does he need to get a podium?Finally a woman that understands me!
I would say a top 5 as an indicator of talent followed up by either a podium or even a win of course.
He needs to not do no-hands on a windy day and keep his head up when training on the TT bike. If he can do that, he can win : )
I was expecting him to stay, but it seems that he got an offer early in the year and EF wasn't prepared to commit by then (read it on an interview on Wielerflits, I think).
As per the spots not officially confirmed, Doull and Quinn have been reported to extend. Regarding Shaw, it's just a guess he should be staying. He did a good TdF until he crashed out and seems to be trusted by the team, plus he has not been linked to another team.
On another note, Burgos is beginning their renewals and signings announcements. Langelotti has been the first to officially extend. Today they will announce a bunch of renewals (Bol among others). As per signings, there is a rumour (nothing confirmed) that places rider(s) from Bolton Equities at Burgos.
once again, pro teams / pro cyclists contracts should go from Nov 1st to Oct 31st. I imagine Roglic training with an unbranded S-Works shoes and bike, same as Tao with his black Trek etc etc. avoiding official pics and many marketing opportunities for teams and brands. so weird
Never seems to affect teams in motorsport as much; MotoGP season finishes on the Sunday, and the next day riders will be on the new team's bike for a test. Nobody kicks up a stink....they might just wear a race-suit with personal sponsors....but you'd never see them in old team's kit on their new bike.
Sometimes, as seen in F1/WRC there might be a blank livery on the car, or blank overalls......And there are times when both teams have agreed and they'll wear the new kit in the fully liveried car.
Saying that, Cyclocross has the most ridiculous transfer season; mid season sponsor changes/transfers; just this year, Van Empel went from Pauwels-Sauzens to Jumbo, from Ridley to Cervelo, Shimano to Sram........
Continuing the semi-Italiafication of the team (base in Italy, Volpi manager and Boaro a DS), JCL-UKYO announce their first Italian rider.

I thought they'd be signing old guys, so good to see them picking up someone still in his relative prime and now that you can be based in Europe, but still get the good Japanese wages, it's probably quite an attractive proposition.

As someone with a lot of speed but not much else, he should be ideally suited to the Asian calendar. But if they're expanding in Europe, maybe he won't go east too much.
UCI still dreaming of racing in Asia in November and December?
But yeah, seems silly to do it this way, the important thing is that Riders doesn't ride Vuelta for Team A and then goes to Lombardia for Team B.
It should even out for Sponsors, that would loose Rogla a little bit early, but then they get Riber B a little bit early as well.
Contract extensions at Jayco:
https://www.greenedgecycling.com/20...et-to-continue-their-greenedge-cycling-story/
Juul-Jensen and Hepburn get two more years and Lawson Craddock one more year.

Having one Rodriguez = Good.
Having two = Even better!
Or that we don't get a situation like the 2020 Vuelta ever again. The morning of stage 12 would have been a confusing mess if contracts ran from Nov 1st to Oct 31st. Though, it that case they would probably have been extended to the race had concluded.

They currently have 28 riders on the PCS list - Stewart has resigned and will be Ewan's lead-out rider is the 29th rider, while after Ineos finish announcing their new signings and extensions, then Plapp will be the 30th rider.

Those sweepstakes are a few years and a ton of development away.
Trust me, they are not. Ashlin Barry is the biggest thing to come out of NA since ... I don't know.
