Who is Bora's true leader???

They can mostly podium, winning would come with better support, but that currently doesn't seem to be a possibility, support is just not a thing. Maybe they try it out some day.

If you get Evenepoel for 6M a year and a buy out clause and the main target of the sprint is Catalunya (4th or whatever and why Catalunya) and Liege (3rd after getting completely stomped on La Redoute and finishing almost 2 minutes down) then it doesn't bode well.

For real, the biggest part of Evenepoels' sales pitch was still that he's a future TdF winner, now he's getting destroyed by a kid 7 years younger in one of his favorite races.

I agree that based on his results this spring they overpaid. Let’s see how the rest of the season goes.

Bora really fumbled it with Evenepoel, should've spent the money on Paul Sexas, who's contract runs out next year.

Honestly, I don’t think anyone on this team deserves 100% leadership. None of them have shown they can be in contention for a major victory. None can hang with Pogacar, Seixas, Vingegaard, MVDP, Wout races that suit their respective strengths (all, in Pogacar’s case).

In a way reminds me of the infighting with RadioShack-Trek 2011-2013.

No amount of support is going to help lift Roglic, Lipowitz, Remco, Pellizzari, or Hindley over Pogi, Vingo or Seixas. It's just not going to happen. Bora's dilemma is that their only solid well rounded GC rider is considerably past his prime. All of the others have either weak areas or are just too inexperienced to really know yet. At least they don't still have Blo Blo Blo.
