All UAE riders besides Pogacar disappointed on TT this year. Normal strong TT riders like McNulty, Almeida and Bjerg all failed. That tell me their bike isn't great. Like when you see Jumbo, even ordinarily riders get top 10's in TT's.

Maybe but the road race will be just 2 weeks after the end of the Tour and the absence of a longer climb like Oude Kwarenmont shifts the odds against Pogacar. But if he doesn't go to the Vuelta, he should be there.
Italian legend Giuseppe Saronni looks back on his seismic rivalry with Francesco Moser and other career highlights
Giuseppe Saronni’s greeting is as warm and restorative as a morning espresso. In his azure cotton shirt and black suit trousers he’d be at home in a plush Italian coffee bar, but the UAE Team Emirates advisor is welcoming Cyclist to the team’s HQ, the pair of posters behind him a dead giveaway: one is of the now-departed Alexander Kristoff celebrating a sprint victory, the other depicts Tadej Pogačar in the yellow jersey.

Slaughtering UAE team tactics. What Benji says is especially interesting about other riders in the peleton wanting to talk about UAE bad tactics.

Luke Lamperti is the present and future of American cycling. That might be the laziest lead I have ever written, but I can think of no other way to get across just how good Lamperti has been, is today, and might be in the future.
He is currently under contract to ride for Trinity Racing, a British continental level team for riders under 23-years-old. But, this week, he was invited to take part in a training camp hosted by Team UAE in Spain. This is like being invited to scrimmage with the Boston Celtics. Lamperti will get to ride with some of the sport’s heavyweights, including two-time Tour de France winner, Tadej Pogacar, and up and coming stars Jay Vine and veteran Adam Yates.

I have an important question.
Why is their UCI code "UAD"?
I have conducted a meticulously thorough research and come to the conclusion that there is not a single D in "UAE Team Emirates". Of course there is a D in United which the U stands for but that's hardly the most relevant letter in the team's name, plus it comes after the A from the code anyway.
What. Is. The. Deal. With. The. D???

Hills in de Ronde are far more selective.
Contending in Glasgow means little cause there's like 50 dudes who can 'contend' there.
If the race is ridden hard, as we seen in recent times most of the biggest races are, it will be one of strongest riders in the peloton that wins.
Yeah sprinter type won Glasgow. Any advantage Pog has is quite diminished
They all so weird. From left to right:
Adam Yates, Tim Wellens, Felix Großschartner, Jay Vine.
And UAE also continues to have the worst national jerseys:

I suppose Wellens is trying to go for the intense stare.
Instead he just looks mildly confused.

I'm lazy so can anybody make a summary of this article in English?

Het is wennen voor Tim Wellens bij zijn nieuwe ploeg: “Ik ben naar UAE gekomen om grote wedstrijden te winnen”
Wennen voor Tim Wellens (31): na meer dan tien jaar Lotto-Soudal komt hij bij UAE Team Emirates in een nieuwe wereld terecht. Met “karaktervolle” ploegmaats, ander materiaal en een manier van trainen die enige aanpassing vergt. “Maar ik moet dit een kans geven. Iedereen rijdt goed bij UAE. Niet...

Ok, haven't read the article but I guess it'll be something like:
"Amazing to be here."
"Fresh and exciting environment."
"Teammates and staff are superb."
"Already feel at home."
