Except for this year, Groenewegen in the last 3 years, has got 800 to 1000 UCI points. my query about this transfer is that groenewegen prefers stage races, yet Unibet rides lots of one day races.

Do Red Bull-Bora lose one of their GC riders or do they go into next year with Pellizzari, Roglic, Lipowitz, and Remco? So four potential GT podium finishers? I'm sure Pellizzari is happy in a domestique role but feels like overkill

Hindley is staying, no?
I think Evenepoel will lead few stage races and ride more classics.
Roglic has one more year - they may go Roglic and Pellizari for Giro and Remco, Florian for the Tour with Pellizari acting as domestique. Is Hindley still there next year?

You have 2 leads in most stage races with one prioritized over the other. Don't go full trident in the Tour.
Question is more if you protect both Hindley and Pelizzari in the Giro or not. And that's assuming Roglic goes Giro/Vuelta.
I assume Evenepoel geos Tour only and Lipowitz can do Tour/Vuelta.

I forgot Hindley existed, but yes that makes five (and Martinez, though 2024 was a historically weak Giro). Hindley has also seemed fairly happy on a domestique role, but it is a shame to see another team start hoarding top 20 GC riders. We are close to the point that the best GC riders outside Visma/Bora/UAE are Tiberi, Onley and Derek Gee.

RBH undoubtedly now has many strong options with Remco on board. In theory, four or five riders could compete for the podium. But the fact that Remco is now part of the team doesn’t change the fact that strong support riders are still needed. So far, no new additions have been made in that area. And not every team leader is automatically a good helper when the situation requires it.

Yes, that is correct. The date to register riders for the following season was changed from August 1st to October 15th. This change was already in place last season.
People are just too used to the August 1st date but there is nothing special in the rules about the August 1st date anymore other than it opens the registration period for immediate transfers for those who rider for another team the rest of the season.

About the Remco situation, I'd just glad that it's done and out in the open.
Now he can go to a team that will actually put in the effort to build for GC and give him an environment where he can discover if there's anymore improvement to be mined.
And Quick-Step can go back to what they've always been - a Classics team. I'm not sure they'll be competitive next year, but their attempt at being a GC team was a waste of time and money.

Will they though? I guess more so than Soudal QS but looking at for example their Tour team where they had 2 top 10 candidates, the support for them was rather thin. To me they don't really feel like a committed GC team. They only really had Vlasov that can be considered as any real help for them. Also looking at their climbing roster they have a lot of top riders who have ridden as captains themselves and done well like Hindley, Martinez and even Pellizzari so more like super domestiques who might still have ambitions of their own perhaps. They could really stand to invest in 3-4 proper mountain domestiques in my view. Perhaps bring back Mühlberger and sign Georg Steinhauser for example.

Mühlberger actually prefers being a domestique and thinks he's not suited to being a team leader, he's the kind of domestique they should have. The big thing for them will be getting Dani Martinez and Vlasov back to at least solid climbing domestique levels, if that happens they'll have at least some.
But yeah, sign a Mühlberger and a Christian Rodriguez and maybe even Mr. Magnus Sheffield (strengthens the classics squad + a strong domestique). Also maybe keep Aleotti and Sobrero, who are good in the medium mountains and at least decent climbers, if healthy.

Pellizzari has zero races as a captain in 2025. That will have to change next year (at least for one week stage races) otherwise I'm pretty sure he won't be happy for long.

Pellizzari should try and avoid being deeply domesticated early in the career. Difficult habit to get rid of.
