Dont think it aligns with their strategy at Polti-Kometa to sign either.

I think Q36.5 or Corratec is more likely.

Maybe Tudor for Moscon.

Masnada was in talks with Q36, but haven't heard any more about it.

Corratec might even disappear altogether. If they survive, the team needs a massive revamp. The only interesting rider in the roster is Kyrylo Tsarenko and we could make it two if we add half a point for the washed versions of Sbaragli and Conti

I find it strange that Quick Step would not offer Moscon a new contract. Think he has performed his role well this year.

I thought the same.

Reinderink performed better though.

So it's 1 out of 2 riders Lefevere have a chance -> Moscon out!

Any news on where Alexander Kamp is going next season. He's a bit of a weird rider who mainly seems to do well at Amstel Gold race more than anything.

I think he could be a decent punt for Uno-X next season. Just like Marcus Hoelgaard has thrived when getting away from domestique duties at Lidl-Trek I think there might be a chance for Kamp to also get the best out of himself in the environment that Uno-X has created.

Apparently Uno-X will only have 26 riders next year (been reading rumours of that on Norwegian Cycling Twitter), and as they are on 25 now I assume renewal of Idar Andersen will make the team full for next year.

I'm surprised they'd given EB a 3 year contract. Maybe that means her father will move to the team as well.

Lars Boom has joined FDJ-SUEZ with immediate effect, so someone else will have to coach Vas throughout the CX season, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, if she can avoid health issues this winter.

Pretty bad sign most of the time when teams do this (it's the same with Lotto, 26 riders only and we all know why). I guess they are on their limit financially. Tbf, they did have some reinforcements with Kron, but I fear their momentum has stopped a bit and getting to WT in 2026 will be very very hard. And then you have to fight off ChinAstana, Tudor and (probably) Arkea for the guaranteed invites...

Yeah, all kinds of rumours on MTB forum; Giant also mentioned, so presumably Jayco-AlUla.

I wonder of we'll see more XCO racers wanting some road racing as it's seems to be a benefit, with endurance. Top CX talents are scouted, and signed by WT/WWT teams, but top XCO racers not as much it seems.

Jayco Alula are full, although I have been informed there could be a surprise retirement.

Totally agree. Only having 26 riders and no Development team will also make it harder for them to race as many races as they did this season, which will make it harder to score the needed points. I would've thought that if there ever was a time to "push above the limit" it would be for next season, but it seems their owners dont look at it the same way.
