Being an extremely highly paid Sky/Ineos superdomestique does not mean just that you ride for other people in GTs. It means structuring your form, your season, what type of training you do and your goals around riding for other people in GTs.He's mostly a domestique only in GTs and he could've maybe won a couple of GT stages more had his team choices been different
I wouldn't put it past MosconI would assume that is what domestiques are for.
And they have already dropped the fourth word of it on their own badge, so they can scarcely complain if we abbreviate it.View: https://twitter.com/CircusWGT/status/1334467426914869248

bit of a mouthful!

Well they have proved this year, that they're pretty good at tag teaming.Payoff: the only cycling team you can find on Pornhub.
i do not question his decision to take money, however if we assume correctly thats the motivating factor, one could easily make an argument if he was a leader he would have made more money - after all that kind of logic applies mostly to riders who dont really have talent to be high performersBeing an extremely highly paid Sky/Ineos superdomestique does not mean just that you ride for other people in GTs.

It doesn’t just mean giving up the chance to ride for yourself in the biggest races of the season, it means focusing your season on that and over time it means altering the balance of your capabilities as a rider to be better at that.
Perhaps “a fraction” overstates things, but we are talking here about one of the most talented and successful one day racers in the world who going into 2021 won’t have won an even slightly meaningful one day race since 2017. I think it’s pretty clear that he has chosen to optimise his bank balance rather than his palmares, which is a perfectly reasonable thing to do!

Correct. Link below:Not sure if it been confirmed here but

Qhubeka - Assoss
renews Reinhard van Rensburg and signs Matteo Pelucchi ex Bardiani, Lasse Norman Hansen ex Alpecin
There's only three s's in Assos. Assoss is what I assume is going on here, but I've been mislead by riders' facial expressions beforeQhubeka - Assoss

That was something I did not see coming. Hopefully this will payout in a good way.Cav to DQS. Announced on the DQS instagram.
Wow. Don't know why exactly, but I like it. Maybe he can turn into a DS later.Cav to DQS. Announced on the DQS instagram.

Yes, it will. Alpecin let Norman Hansen go because of his focus on the track and because they thought that his preparation for the track prevented him to combine it with the road program of the team.Lasse Norman Hansen is a classy rider, but durning the next season his main focus will probably on getting the track cycling TP gold medal (if the Olympics actually happen).
You seem... very bitter about the fact that they have WorldTeam status for next year.Pelucchi is one of Nizzolo's best friends, they have been teammates in the U23 ranks. I guess he's a decent sprinter for the Asian races like Langkawi that the team usually rides.
Lasse Norman Hansen is a classy rider, but durning the next season his main focus will probably on getting the track cycling TP gold medal (if the Olympics actually happen). The team really lacks climbers that can support Pozzovivo (and maybe Aru). They'd be better off as a good PCT team than insisting with the WT bs...
What? What? WHAT??????people in britain buy floors too
And yet he initially signed with the team because they'd let him focus on the track.Yes, it will. Alpecin let Norman Hansen go because of his focus on the track and because they thought that his preparation for the track prevented him to combine it with the road program of the team.
Not really, I just think that it's better to have less mediocre WT teams and more strong PCT teams that actually have an impact on the bigger races that they race.You seem... very bitter about the fact that they have WorldTeam status for next year.
As for the climbers to support Pozzovivo thing, well... one of them is obviously gonna be... Aru!
Yes, but according to Alpecin's manager, they were expecting him to be more present on their road goals. They were sorry to let him go as they see in him a lot of potential, but were not able to have him miss a lot of their road program next year and take the spot of another rider who could be more present on the road.And yet he initially signed with the team because they'd let him focus on the track.
