UAE-Team Emirates thread

[YavorD]

With Narvaez and Sivakov out, these renews are important for UAE.
There are also important riders on the market.
Gall, Buitrago, Van Eetvelt, etc.

McNulty and Vermeersch commit futures to UAE Team Emirates-XRG - UAE team Emirates

The first UAE World Tour cycling team

I don't think any of them would want to join UAE.
Limited chances in any race.

yeah, but tbh we've been surprised in the past.

Some riders think so highly of themselves they reckon they can take Almeida/Del Torros spot as the 2nd GT rider and some riders just reckon they can take a year or two as a dom and make some bank and then return to a second tier team to ride for own chances.

The UAE always gives all its riders a chance to win something throughout the season. It's only when Pogacar is racing that there's a clear leader.

The names mentioned above don't really make sense from the UAE's perspective. Ramírez is 100% guaranteed a promotion to the WT team next year. If I were the UAE boss, I’d be looking for riders like Denz or Affini & Frigo or De Plus.

18 victories so far this season while last year at this time they were at 25.
Non existent in Paris-Nice and Catalunya and it's very likely it will be the same in Basque Country.
I don't see them reaching 70 wins this year.

And two of them are the Mexican national races that dind´t exist in 2025.

UAE's peak has passed; now it seems Decathlon's is coming, and BORA appears stronger as a team but without a stronger elader than UAE's.

Visma at its peak won Grand Tours, Omloop with his Tratnik, their seventh rider? A time trial world champioship with their fifht time trialist? UAE has won the Tour de Romandie and the Calisca de Jaen, Trofeo Matteoti. Overrated victories.
