Episode Notes
In this week’s episode of The Cycling Podcast, Daniel Friebe is joined by fellow journalist Daniel Benson for a look at how RedBull-BORA-hansgrohe are gearing up for the 2026 season.
After Remco Evenepoel’s arrival, the German team are under pressure to deliver on their long-standing ambition to join cycling’s ‘superteams’. This week their riders and goals for the new season were presented in Mallorca, with Daniel Benson among the reporters in attendance. He tells us what he heard and what he makes of Ralph Denk’s grand plan to integrate Remco while still keeping his other star names happy.
We also give you the latest on the Oscar Onley-to-Ineos speculation and ponder what Lidl-Trek are likely to reveal about Juan Ayuso’s 2026 schedule at their own media event in Spain.
