I hope he doesn‘t retire. I‘m sure he will get a contract on a PCT or CT team. He‘s still good, he could even still ride for a WT team. And he‘s such a fighter. He gets badly injured all the time, and comes back as if nothing happened.
I‘m sad that Qhubeka stops. I somehow liked this project, although this was a rather weak WT team.
Alpecin are super good and improve all the time. They are better than most WT teams.
Quintana at Arkea and Sagan‘s transfer to Total both seem strange to me. Somehow, that doesn‘t really fit. This reminds me of Beloki riding for Brioche in 2004.
