Add experience to their young classic squad ( EBH / Thomas / Stannard / Puccio ). He was 23rd in last year P-R so he's not a bad rider to have in a youth and developing squad. Especially after Flecha left. Rasch should fill out the role Jeremy Hunt had in the team this year basically I guess.

Also probably friends with EBH or Nordhaug, who I bet Sky want to keep a hold of.
Edit: Wait, is Nordhaug going to Rabo? Forget I said him, if so...

Still quite crap(Rasch). It's true, Mads Kaggestad tweeted that Rasch sent him a message about the move, and told him to be quiet about it.

Well, Sky tried and failed to get a few cobbles guys, so I guess in the end they said f*** it and went for an experienced guy to help the young guys like Thomas improve

Wow, IAM is a heck of a team 
Elmiger, Goddaert, Haussler, Hinault, Larsson, Löfkvist, Tschopp...
Their current CQ value would put them 25th overall with only Europcar, Saur, Argos, Androni, Cofidis and Farnese Vini in front, and that's with at least 5, up to 11 riders less than these teams.

Haussler cyclingnews article - Sep20
Haussler would not be drawn on his future after Garmin-Sharp, only revealing that he is set to announce his team for 2013 in the coming days
IAM announces 2013 roster - Sep20
The Swiss-based team will be headlined by grand tour stage winner and classics specialist Heinrich Haussler (Garmin-Sharp),

It seems like E.B.Hagen wanted a norwegian with him , after LPN left . That the only reason i see.

I really like that team. I can see them doing quite well next season, Lofkvist and Hausseler will need to step up though, will be interesting to see how they bothe do with their supposed leadership roles. And Denifl

He's in to replace Jeremy Hunt read what he said he's basically described Hunt's job for the last 2 years
“Next season I hope I can get into the Classics team because I have a lot of experience with that type of riding, and I’ll be happy to work as a domestique during the stage races as well.
“Another role I’m looking forward to taking on is advising the younger guys on the team. Over the years I’ve learnt how to make the best use of my energy, and how to get in the best positions during key parts of the races, and it’ll be nice to pass that knowledge on.”

According to Alexandre Rolin (Cyclismeactu) Mark Cavendish has a verbal agreement with Omega Pharma Quickstep and Patrick Lefevre. Owner Bakala is thought to be sorting out the financial side. |
