according to NOS, he will join the team as a sprint consultant. I don't think Kittel has a DS license.

Oh, I thought it was either December, or early January.

And, okay. I guess the fact that the Kittel Lego figure ends up without a helmet should have been a clue.

Unibet has built quite a nice team with Jose Rujano as gc captain and Ten Dam as key lieutenant. But also Larsson as a strong locomotive. Doesn't look too bad with the upcoming Giro d'Italia being quite mountainous?

Ooohps wrong century!
