Not happening, he isnt going to be on QS next season and is on UAE. 1 thing I know is this. Don't know much else. 

The oracle has spoken, he's been right before.

 

It does just show how much of a joke cycling sponsorship is if QS after this season don't have them queueing up around the corner get on the bus.

More like the past 15 years. QS one of the best teams around in cycling. Arguably the best Spring Classics team in the current peleton. Hard to fathom that corporations don't want their name linked to such a successfully run outfit.

Best team..finished. 70 odd wins this year ..incredible, and they deliver year in and year out.

Its true and as Mntboy said its surpassing they dont line up. Maybe the actual cost of running a team that big and successful is to much for the masses lining up. Lots of companies / people have like 5-10M Euro to play with but when you needing 20+ for a team like QS Im not to sure there many lining up with that ammo to spare for a 2yr + period. 

 

Im not saying those riders / staff dont deserve to be paid what they are, they should be paid more in my eyes but the actual finds aren't there maybe.

Hell that makes me wonder what the actual ROI on a team like QS is as I would imagine that a successful one like them would have a high one. Still 20Mil Euro isn't chump change one has lying about.

 

But yes super crazy to think that such a well run, well managed and well liked team can't find enough sponsors to keep them going.

I was trying to be nice to the other long established teams. [emoji6]

Interesting move. Lotto NL Jumbo is becoming a force to be reckoned with. (Not due to Martin though)

Yep..but he will be able to add even more quality to the team... they have really gone about things well.

He's signed with Trek Segafredo.

 

Sunweb have a ridget set way of doing things which isnt for everyone and rather fight the system for both rider and team move on and be happy. 

 

Good move for him, definitely hasn't gone sideways.
