Laporte go Tjv
'The greatest' going domestique for Van Aert, so it seems.
 

Laporte go Tjv
Really didn't see that one coming. Would have expected Laporte to stay in French teams mainly.

Nibali could be on his way to Astana



"In tutto questo, si sovrappongono i discorsi del futuro agonistico di Nibali, destinato a lasciare la Trek-Segafredo dopo un bienno finora avaro di soddisfazioni.

Vincenzo ha la volontà di restare in gruppo, e ci sono due opzioni principalmente sul tavolo. La prima porta a un ritorno all’Astana di Giuseppe Martinelli, la squadra con la quale ha vinto 3 dei 4 grandi giri nel palmares (Giro 2013 e 2016, Tour 2014): è davvero questa la pista privilegiata.

Ma resterebbe ancora in piedi pure l’ipotesi della Deceuninck-Quick Step dove si ritroverebbe al fianco dell’emergente Evenepoel, il 21enne che si è ritirato al Giro ma resta l’uomo su cui Patrick Lefevere punta per riportare un belga a vincere un grande giro dopo oltre 40 anni. La situazione si dovrebbe definire in tempi brevi: con l’Astana in pole."

I don't get Bennett and Ineos. That's a big mistake if he goes there imo. Ineos are all about GC and he'll get no support or likely won't even be selected for their Tour and Giro squads

If there were 10 grand tours in a year, Ineos could have a different leader for each one. They would have to be insane to cut down the opportunities for their GC guys even more than they already do, by bringing in a top-tier sprinter, and Sam Bennett would have to be insane to put up with maybe two helpers at the Tour de France. On the other hand, MONEY.

Surely the money won't be too bad at Bora now that Sagan and his army are marching on
