UAE-Team Emirates thread

[YavorD]

They have been pushing really hard for wins since at least the start of the Vuelta so I think they are going to try

Might be the reason why they send Ayuso to Guatxi

They don’t, Ayuso will never ride for UAE again

Ayuso has now been removed from the races he was listed for.

Might have to send Pog

No, you're right. He's been removed from PCS.
Then again, I should never trust PCS

It's impressive how UAE, especially del Toro and Pogi, are performing. Another great victory in Piedmont today.

What I don't understand is that the competitors can see how superior they are. Why do they help them so often to achieve further victories? I've seen it dozens of times this year and the result has always been the same. Today, Astana completely overestimated themselves. In the end, they didn't make it into the top 15, but they did help del Toro get ahead. Of course, Prestige and Astana are aiming for good places and need points. But you can't beat UAE like that at the moment. You have to try. But you can't help them. Otherwise, they have it far too easy at the moment.

Astana had Scaroni who had come off a series of good results and some wins. I don't think they got it right and they should have been more creative, but it wasn't a completely unfounded belief. Scaroni hasn't been at the level of Del Toro in these races but he hasn't been far off, and his performance in the European Champs was excellent

Impossible without a top sprinter.

nothing about UAE performance is going to surprise me.
they can win multiple stages in Guangxi and the GC of course.

It is literally/definitionally possible and is has been since you claimed it was impossible in August-ish

Impossible "in my book", not mathematically.
They need to win 4 stages + GC in China.

If they send Pogi to China, he will also win the flat stages solo.

I don't think they need to reach 100. Reports were they were talking about the possibility in early August and it turns out they might narrowly miss it.

Dehumanization is the scourge of the social media age

 

[YavorD]

If Pollitt didn't start bullying people on that Ventoux stage, they could've been one win closer.
Costly mistake by the German, I hope it doesn't cost him dearly..

Actually Pogačar used to be a lot like Harry Potter in the first movie: A young man with brown hair and a lot of talent, some would even call it magical powers, who was taught by a bald fraud possessed by an evil spirit.

I am surprised that a quality sprinter has not gone to UAE. They have enough riders to make a sprint train and you will get an excellent calendar, excluding the TDF.
