Oleg Tinkov has been linked to a possible sponsorship with Sky - but quickly regarded those claims as bullshit. |

I read differently, Brailsford flat out refused his offer.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

very surprisingly Team Sunweb pulls up Florian Stork to WT level, a decent domestique at the Dev Team but not a rider with special results

I see people talking about Rebellin and Sevilla. But what about Paco Mancebo. The guy just won a stage in Ronda Pilipinas at 42! Maybe Tafi could have taken a swing at riding in the Philipines instead!

Big changes coming up for the World Tour wildcards next season. The top 2 PCT teams will always get an invitation for Giro, Tour and Vuelta. The top 3 PCT teams will always get an invite for the other WT races. Declining an invitation will be possible of course.

Colombian sponsor on the cards. Bernal future TdF champion for sure then.

This will mainly benefit two teams - Cofidis and Direct Energie. And also guaranteed wildcards could see teams like Dimension Data relagate themselves to PCT level to get these preferential wildcards.
Now this applies to all World Tour races, but most of the invitations will be declined due to the fact that some races aren't in the teams or sponsors' interest. The wildcards that matter the most are the 3 GT races, the Spring Classics, Milan-San Remo, Paris-Nice/Tirreno-Adriatico, Dauphine (maybe) and Il Lombardia.

Just want to mention how happy I am that TDU will start in Copenhagen in 2021, not only a great opportunity for Cycling Fans in Copenhagen and Denmark to view it LIFE, but also many (south) Swedish and (north) Germans living close to Denmark.

That's some serious jetlag
