Cycling team kits 2024

With the New Year upon us, we're getting a clear picture of the sea of colour that will make up the pro pelotons in 2024.

Most teams have now unveiled their kits for the upcoming season, with some sticking to their 2023 designs but a fair few mixing things up with new designs.

Ineos Grenadiers ’ new kit , which is very similar to their old kit but made by a new supplier, was leaked online by their own rider , Egan Bernal, although most PR launch campaigns have gone off without a hitch – the most eye-catching being Julian Alaphilippe’s Celine Dion rendition for Soudal Quick-Step ’s get-up.

The Quick-Step kit is even less of a departure than Ineos’, with SD Worx and UAE Team Emirates among the other big teams to keep their tweaks to a minimum. As for the bigger changes, Bahrain Victorious have gone white, Jayco AlUla have had a complete redesign and Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale have ditched the infamous brown shorts.

As for those still to land, we are still waiting on the full reveal for the new dsm-firmenich PostNL number, which looks set to be white, blue and orange.

In this piece, we’ve gathered all the kits across the men’s and women’s WorldTours, all in one place, and we’ll keep it updated whenever a new one drops.

AG Insurance-Soudal

There's no significant change here, although we do apparently have "more playful" lines between the blue and white, and flowers "in motion" on the sleeves and sides.

Alpecin-Deceuninck

No new kit has broken cover so far for the Belgian team of the world champion Mathieu van der Poel .

Arkéa-B&B Hotels

The French team caught the most attention with their new kit thanks to a slightly strange Excalibur launch, complete with Arnaud Démare brandishing a sword. This jersey, which welcomes a new sponsor in B&B Hotels, is similar to 2023 but does contain some striking Excalibur-themed collage panelling.

Astana Qazaqstan

Astana's new kit is an evolution of their Tour de France special edition from 2023. The Pringle patterning is gone, replaced with a more contained section of that so-called "veins of mineral stones" design from last year's Tour.

Bahrain Victorious

Bahrain Victorious have played around with white jerseys at the Tour de France in the past, and they liked it so much they've made it their main kit. The old kit was red, black, and orange, so this presents a fresher, less obviously fossil-fuelled look.

Bora-Hansgrohe

Primož Roglič's new team are back with Sportful after a two-year hiatus and while they're sticking with their deep green base, they've added sections of pale green, which seems to have divided opinion so far.

Canyon-SRAM

The women's team have produced some of the most striking kits in the sport in recent years, and for 2024, they have not strayed from this trend. After using their previous design for two successive seasons, Canyon-SRAM have decided to shake things up ahead of the new campaign, with their new strip unveiled just ahead of the women's Santos Tour Down Under.

Remaining with their tried-and-tested colours of blue, pink and purple - amongst others - Canyon-SRAM's new livery does away with some of the motifs that scattered the old design, and instead focuses on the 'harmonic riffs' of races.

Essentially, geometric patterns now dominate the jersey both front and back, designed to reflect the sounds of the peloton as it races along. We think this will remain one of the most popular kits in the world.

Ceratizit-WNT

The team haven't fully revealed their kit yet, releasing only a shot from the back and a blurred-out front-on shot, but it looks pretty similar to the blue and red design of 2023.

With Decathlon going all-in with the AG2R team, fellow French WorldTour squads are switching away from Van Rysel and forming a new partnership with Mobel Sport, although there's not much at all new about this 2024 design.

Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale

Decathlon's in-house brand Van Rysel is now with AG2R as part of the new sponsorship, and while they've retained the diagonal logo-ing, there's a new white and blue colour scheme. However, what caused the most outcry was the death of the brown shorts, long-derided but already strangely missed.

dsm-firmenich PostNL

The new dsm-firmenich PostNL jersey has proved one of the most divisive of the new campaign, with the Dutch squad making a total revamp of their look with the addition of PostNL as co-title sponsor.

Gone is the dark blue and black design, and in comes an eye-catching white, blue and orange attire that looks set to make the team stand out from the pack this season. Orange is, of course, the colour of PostNL, whilst the white base is complemented by light blue up top.

The new dsm-firmenich PostNL kit looks perfect for a summer's day

The bib shorts will be navy for the team and the old dsm logo is gone from the front of the jersey, to the delight of most. Whether you love it or hate it, you can't deny there is a real sense of fun in this new strip for 2024.

EF Pro Cycling

EF Pro Cycling unveiled their new pink and yellow jersey on 4 January with a host of colourful pictures taken at their recent winter training camp. The get-together was the biggest in the team's history, owing to the addition of EF Education-Cannondale women's team to the EF Education-EasyPost men's side.

EF Education-Cannondale and EF Education-EasyPost will wear the same kits in 2024, bar the odd sponsor change

The team's new jersey remains primarily pink, but is adorned with bright yellow graphics which are in ode to the team's life on the road, as well as their European base in Girona, Spain.

Fenix-Deceuninck

We're yet to see anything new from the team that's run by the same people as the men's Alpecin-Deceuninck outfit.

There are subtle but striking changes for FDJ-SUEZ's fresh look for 2024. Their jersey remains predominantly blue with red sprawling the left-hand shoulder and the bottom of the jersey fading to the black of the bib shorts.

FDJ-SUEZ unveiled their new kit on 1 January

However, a series of navy diagonals break up the lighter blue that the team is known for, rather than adopting more of a simple fade design that the team used in 2023. This makes for a much more impressive kit, in our opinion. French bank card network Cartes Bancaires will also be pleased, as their sponsorship extends from the jersey's shoulders to also featuring on the front of the top.

Groupama-FDJ

Like the women's FDJ team – although the two are not co-owned – the men's team had one of the most popular kits in 2023, trading white for a dark blue, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see them stick in 2024.

Human Powered Health

Human Powered Health have released a kit for 2024 that they are calling a "new refreshed look", but to our mind, it looks pretty much the same as it did in 2023. Orange forms the base colour of the jersey, with hues of red and purple forming gradient splodges across the design. It leans darker than the 2023 version, but all in all the American squad are sticking to a familiar visual identity.

Ineos Grenadiers

This one was leaked by Egan Bernal on Instagram, which perhaps made it seem a little uninspiring when the announcement did come. There's a change of supplier – GOBIK in for Bioracer – and there's more orange and more fade, but the overall look feels similar to 2023.

Intermarché-Wanty

The Belgian team wore three different jerseys in 2023, with special editions for the Giro and Tour – but they have settled on a brand-new design for 2024. After their main effort for 2023 had the look of a white jersey that had innocuously been damaged by knocked-over paint cans, the team have opted for a far more geometric design for the new campaign.

Well-known social media user and graphic designer Stycle Design has been drafted in by Intermarché-Wanty once again to design the jersey, whilst the team has agreed a new partnership with Belgian company Verge Sport to manufacture the kit.

© Alessandro Volders (Cycling Media Agency)

Intermarché-Wanty's new kit was unveiled on 26 December, 2023

White, fluorescent yellow and dark blue remain the team's core colours, with the right-hand side of the jersey predominantly yellow and dark blue patches colouring the white left-hand side.

As is the norm with this WorldTeam, multiple sponsors adorn the jersey, and it is Fantini who has been offered a far more prominent role in 2024, taking centre stage on the lower half of the top.

Liv AlUla Jayco

Liv Racing TeqFind and Jayco AlUla have merged over the winter, bringing an end to the former's spell as a WorldTeam, and bolstering the ranks available to Jayco AlUla. As we discussed in our Team Talk analysis , both squads struggled in 2023 and uniting forces should not only improve Jayco AlUla's WorldTeam, but has also allowed GreenEDGE Cycling to launch a new women's development side in the sport's lower tier.

Both women's teams will be named Liv AlULA Jayco and with a new name comes a fresh kit - which is a drastic change from their 2023 effort. Gone is the white and blue design and emboldened remains Liv's trademark purple/aubergine.

© Liv Jayco AlUla

Liv AlUla Jayco's new kit was released on 1 January, alongside that of the men's team

The front of the jersey sees the bottom half in an orange shade to depict the sands of the Australian outback, which changes to purple for the Liv logo and fades to white at the very top of the jersey. The sleeves, meanwhile, are a dark navy, as are the sides of the jersey and accompanying bib shorts.

Liv and AlUla take prominence as the main title sponsors, whilst Jayco settles for a smaller slot above the right collarbone. Low-quality graphics had leaked of the jersey in the weeks ahead of its release, but the general consensus amongst the public is that this is a jersey that certainly looks better in person.

Jayco AlUla

The new kit for the men's Jayco AlUla outfit, who are of course a UCI WorldTeam in their own right, was unveiled alongside that of the women's on 1 January. It sees the men wear a kit with the same design as the women's teams, only with the aubergine of Liv Cycling swapped out for the light blue of Jayco - as was seen on the team's 2023 kit.

Jayco AlUla will sport a fresh look for 2024

One other notable difference between the sides is that the men will ride on Giant Bikes, as opposed to the Liv bikes that the women's teams will use. Liv is indeed a conglomerate company of Giant Bikes .

Lidl only joined as a title sponsor mid-way through the year, so it's no surprise the new kit that was cooked up then will be back for a full season of racing. Whereas they'd previously worn separate kits, the men's and women's teams are now wearing the same.

There's no big change for the Spanish team, who are sticking with a blue jersey with the big M. It does come with a little more excitement, though, with some artistic patterning as it fades towards the shorts.

Movistar's kit for 2024

Roland have parted ways with Israel-Premier Tech for 2024 and with that, the old blue-and-white design is put to rest. Instead, Roland returns to a base colour of ruby red, which the team used in the years before Israel-Premier Tech's involvement. Simple but arguably stylish, the new Roland kit also confirms the involvement of Pinarello as the team's bike manufacturer.

The dominant women's team have stuck with the same colour palette and overall design but this feels slightly brighter and bolder compared to 2023.

Revealed to much fanfare, amid strobe lighting and a full-hearted Celine Dion lip-sync from a two-time world champ, the Soudal Quick-Step kit, also designed by Stycle Design, is very much business as usual.

Visma-Lease a Bike

The Dutch team are changing names and sponsors, but not colours, sticking to the yellow and black scheme as they try and establish it as something of a team brand identity. However, it's definitely a brighter shade of yellow than previously, complete with honeycomb patterning that's part of that 'killer bee' branding. It's the same kit for the men's and women's teams.

UAE Team Emirates

The main change here is the removal of black from the jersey, the running joke being Tadej Pogačar wanting to go fully white now he's too old for the white jersey classification at the Tour de France. There's also a new design element with red, green, and black stripes at the base of the jersey.

All the team kits for 2024: Lifeplus-Wahoo team up with MAAP on new green kit

Keep up to date with the jerseys to watch out for next season in our complete guide

• Sign up to our newsletter Newsletter

It is January, we are days away from the opening of the 2024 season and the Tour Down Under, and so it is time for the floodgates to open and for all the teams to release their kits, if they haven't already. Some came out way back in early December, but now is the time for most to be released. 

Rather than writing up each team individually, we thought it would work better if we collated them together, unless someone does something mad. When all the kits are out, we can do our usual arbitrary ranking of them too , so do look out for that. In this guide, we will cover just the WorldTour teams, though, otherwise it will get a bit overwhelming.

If you would rather find out which team riders will be appearing for next year, rather than what they will be wearing, you can find that on our comprehensive transfer guide for 2024 too .

Those looking to make a splash with their new jersey, shorts and socks combos should be wary of the fate that has already befallen Ineos Grenadiers, with Egan Bernal appearing to accidentally revealing next year's kit - with a different manufacturer - on social media. 

So far, we are only certain of a dozen or so kits for next season, but the launches have already meant some big changes in the colours of the men's and women's pelotons for next season.

Lifeplus-Wahoo

All change at Lifeplus-Wahoo, who become the second British Continental team to be sponsored by Australian kit brand MAAP after Trinity. The women's team wore a dark green with blue, pink and yellow jersey last year, but this year have gone with a neon green and light purple jersey, with dark green shorts.

"We’re honoured to be sponsoring the Lifeplus-Wahoo professional women’s team," Oliver Cousins, MAAP's co-founder, said. "The team’s values, focus and commitment to the progression of women’s cycling is truly inspiring. For us at MAAP, this is not just a commitment to excellence in cycling; it's a vital investment in the empowerment of women in sports. We want to foster athletic prowess as well as actively propel the sport forward by cultivating a more equitable future in the world of cycling."

The press release from the British squad says: "As well as outfitting the team, MAAP will also be lifting the lid on what it takes to make it in the world of women’s professional cycling through an exclusive series of behind-the-scenes content."

Canyon-SRAM

In the words of the above model, Kasia Niewiadoma, her team Canyon-SRAM new kit is "vibrant, sharp and fiesty". 

The women's WorldTour outfit has chosen another characteristically bold design. This time, there's a musical undertone, with the patterns said to embody the sounds and rhythms of a race day.  

The impressively pretentious press release reads: "From the whir of the freewheels to the roar of the crowds, brilliant riffs of harmonic colour wrap around the rider with pure sound energy in motion, mirroring the impact the team have in the peloton." 

It's a vibe, and we like it. 

dsm-firmenich PostNL

In the worst kept secret in cycling, dsm-firmenich PostNL have finally 'unveiled' their new kit, which was showcased at the Australian National Road Championships last week and soft launched in November last year. 

The Dutch team has gone for a fresh look for 2024. Out goes the black and blue, donned for the past three seasons, and in come bright orange stripes, layered on an icy white and blue backdrop. 

The new attire made by Nalini is "dazzling" and "expertly crafted", according to the team. 

There's also a hidden meaning in the orange stripes: "The left stripe represents the continuous development of each individual person, while the right stripe visualises their ever-improving innovative environment." Obviously. 

Lotto-Dstny

Lotto-Dstny veered away from their traditional red and white kit last year with the arrival of Dstny as a sponsor, adding a splash of orange and a light blue, or teal. 2024's kit is much the same, with a red chest, a band of orange, and then an aqua-blue below that. The big change is the shape of the orange band, and a slightly different shade of blue.

EF Education-EasyPost and EF Education-Cannondale

Some kits receive very little fanfare at all, but the Rapha kit drop for EF Pro Cycling always provokes a lot of interest. 2024’s offering is fun, with pink inevitably the main colour, but with splashes of yellow across it. It feels like a homage to two of the most popular highlighter colours, but that’s not a bad thing. 

The kits contain messages written across them, from standard cycling phrases like “UP UP UP” and “TURN THE SCREW” to references to a card game that the team likes to play. Owain Doull said: “Unless you're in the team, you wouldn't understand, so I think that's really cool.”

Both the men’s and women’s team wear the same exact kit, for the first time, with the latter now being managed by the same umbrella organisation. The largely pink jersey is paired with black bib shorts and white socks, with the final item supposedly returning due to popular demand. The men and women will need to change their colours for the Giro d’Italia, but that’s a way off yet.

Jayco AlUla and Liv AlUla Jayco

Australian men's team Jayco AlUla and women's team Liv AlUla Jayco will once again wear slightly different designs in 2024. 

The teams unveiled their new kits on New Year's Day, with the jersey blending up from orange to blue for the men, and orange to purple for the women. 

According to the teams, the colours are significant, with "a dash of blue tones inspired from the Australian ocean, the Jayco blue jay bird and Giant Bicycles, to the red hot desert sands of the outback mixed in with hints of deep aubergine found in the AlUla night sky and Liv Cycling."

It's red, white and blue for women's WorldTour squad FDJ - Suez, whose riders continue to style themselves in the French tricolour. 

Designed by Gobik, the team's 2024 kit is almost identical to its 2023 offering, with subtle differences in the texture of the pattern. 

In FDJ - Suez's own words, it's "a refined fusion of style and innovation". 

Intermarché-Wanty

The newly renamed Intermarché-Wanty - due to Belgian laws on gambling adverts - keep the same colours for their 2024 kit, just in a slight different pattern. What was a lime green and navy blue splurge across the stomach of the jersey becomes lime green and navy blue geometric shapes across the top and down the right hand side.

The Walloon team has switched kit suppliers, from Nalini to Verge Sport, and the brand has come up with a simple and smart offering which leaves room for all the sponsors across the front, back, and sides of the jersey. The right sleeve is also in the fetching lime green, and it will be paired with navy blue bib shorts.

Visma-Lease a Bike

The newly renamed Visma-Lease a Bike stick to the yellow and black of Jumbo-Visma as they seek to build on their historic 2023. The Dutch supermarket chain might be gone as sponsors, but it lives on in the iconic yellow branding. 

All told, it's pretty simple, with the sponsors in black on a plain yellow background, with black down the sides, and a hex pattern on the stomach.

The team's boss, Richard Plugge, said that they were launching "more than just a new kit", but a "new corporate identity" too, with the hexagon/honeycomb shapes.

Visma will have to change their kit for the Tour de France come July, once more.

Spain's Movistar have gone for evolution rather than evolution for 2024, with a new shade of blue employed, but one which has appeared on many of their kits.

It's not all one blue, either, with a more navy variant of the colour reaching up from the bottom of the jersey, and there are flashed of white on the back. Both the men and the women will wear this kit, alongside the team's e-sports squad. It's made by Gobik, who are also responsible for the Ineos Grenadiers' one below.

The press release says: "It's a restyling from the previous design, updated to include Telefónica's 100th anniversary celebration logo, while also presenting a resemblance of patterns from networks and fiber, a wink to the year's 'leitmotiv'."

Israel-Premier Tech

Israel-Premier Tech have opted for a more muted kit for 2024, sticking to different shades of blue and white, rather than complicating it with purples and reds. It has the effect of representing the colours of the Israeli flag, and also Premier Tech's colours.

It is the second year the team have had a kit designed by Ekoï, and this one combines navy and two lighter shades of blue, on both the body and the left sleeve. The right sleeve is white. Apparently, it takes inspiration from the team's special Giro kit from 2023, but that had a lot more red. 

SD Worx are known for their "beautiful female outfits", according to the press release which accompanied the launch of the team's new kit. The squad, which I would argue is more known for dominating women's races this season, will be looking more purple in 2024, a return to their 2021 colours really.

The Dutch team also has the highest concentration of world, continental, and national champions, so it is kind of rare to see their top riders in their trade kit - Demi Vollering (Dutch national champion), Lotte Kopecky (world champion) and Marlen Reusser (European champion) speak to this.

However, Lorena Wiebes will be wearing the normal kit, and she described it as "special". Purple is the dominant colour on the chest, but there are also reds and oranges on the front and back of the jersey, along with the giant asterisk thing, the provenance of which escapes me. Paired with black shorts, it's smart, although Wiebes' former European champion bands do rather jar.

Astana-Qazaqstan

Astana-Qazaqstan keep their iconic blue for 2024, which almost goes without saying, but with an added "pattern similar to the veins of mineral stones", according to the press release. Mark Cavendish will ride on for one more year in quite a smart-looking blue jersey, with extra detail on the stomach.

Apparently other inspiration for the kit "comes from the colour affinity with the blue of the sky and the gold of the sun, as well as with elements of the flag of Kazakhstan".

It comes from Biemme, an Italian brand founded in 1978, who take over from Giordana. 

Alexandr Vinokurov, the general manager of Astana, said that it was a "fresh jersey for the riders and [a] fresh start for the team".

Soudal Quick-Step

There isn't a lot of change at Soudal Quick-Step, to be honest, but there is more blue and less white. The Belgian team stick with Castelli, who have supplied much the same jersey for 2024, with subtle changes.

There is a little floral pattern on the sleeves, although it is quite subtle, and other than the blue and white percentages changing a bit, that's it.

The new jersey was designed in collaboration with Stijn Dossche, the man behind stycle.design, who often creates elaborate concept kits. 

"I have also tried to add some different shades of blue, which refer to the sky and the seas," Dossche said. "And the movement in the floral patterns, which show the team’s movement through the natural surroundings in which cycling takes place, and the shapes are to capture the movement of the sport. I think it is really important to protect this environment.”

Quick-Step's women's team, AG Insurance - Soudal Quick-Step, has an identical jersey, just with a different sponsor on the front.

Booooom 💥Our 2024 jersey is out and we absolutely love it 🤩#unlockyourpotential #GearUp #wolfpack📹: @sam_has_a_camera pic.twitter.com/zkBkZUlq43 December 15, 2023

Bora-Hansgrohe

Bora-Hansgrohe said goodbye to its former kit partner Le Col at the end of the 2023 season and the dark shades of green that became synonymous with the German team’s appearance.

Ralph Denk’s squad is back with former partner Sportful for 2024 and the likes of new signing Primož Roglič - and former Giro d’Italia winner Jai Hindley - will be rolling out in a jersey featuring a bright yellow shoulder panel in the new season. 

The shade of yellow is reminiscent of that which was worn by the former Tinkoff team.

As well as the yellow shoulder panel, the jersey features two different shades of green. On the left shoulder the majority of the panelling is a similar shade to last year’s kit although it gradually turns to a lighter shade towards the centre of the chest. 

Ineos Grenadiers

The British team has slowly been edging away from their old navy or black in recent years, and more towards their orange training kit, and this year is almost a full transition. Ineos Grenadiers will be wearing the orange, red and dark navy kit on the road next season, seemingly with orange helmets to boot. It will certainly help them stand out in the peloton.

Of course, we already knew most of this thanks to Bernal's slip-up on social media , but the official announcement of a new deal with Gobik was made public on Wednesday, a "long-term partnership". It means the Spanish brand now supplies two teams on the WorldTour, Ineos and Movistar, two squads seeking to get back to former glories in 2024.

"The quality of the race kit has such a dramatic impact on rider performance," John Allert, Ineos Grenadiers' CEO said. "Therefore choosing a kit partner is not something we take lightly, I’m looking forward to seeing where this collaboration takes us and them in 2024."

The kit is largely orange, fading into a darker hue and then red on the shoulder, with a dark navy left sleeve. It will be paired with black bib shorts and white socks.  

Truth be told, we missed Cofidis' kit last week - sorry to them. Their kit has not changed much from last year, though, so perhaps that's for the best. Van Rysel is no longer in charge of the French team's kit, because they have moved to design AG2R's, so Spanish company Mobel comes in instead.

The pattern on the chest has changed a bit, but I couldn't really tell you what's going on on there. Maybe it's one you need to see in person. There's a bit more red, with the collar also taking on the hue, but other than that I would not be able to tell you the difference. It's still good and clean, though.

UAE Team Emirates

Tadej Pogačar will still be in a white jersey at the Tour de France next summer after all, thanks to his UAE Team Emirates choosing to go completely white for next season. 

The kit is "pure white", meaning "pure speed", according to Pissei, the manufacturer. It isn't quite all white, with the red, green and black of the UAE flag featuring on the bottom of the jersey, and blue, black and red featuring in the sponsor logos, but it is a lot more white than in 2023. 

Pogačar's also featured the flag of Slovenia, as he is the current national champion. Paired with white helmets, it is a clean look for the 2023 WorldTour's best team.

Bahrain Victorious

Damiano Caruso in the new jersey

The biggest change in Bahrain Victorious’ 2024 kit is the colour. Matej Mohorič, Fred Wright, Pello Bilbao and company raced in a mostly red jersey for the past few years but will switch to a largely white jersey for the new season. 

While the kit is undoubtedly new, it bears a striking resemblance to the switch out kit that the team rode in for this year’s Tour de France which featured a “pearl white” jersey. The jersey is almost identical to the switch out kit but the gold band on the sleeves has been replaced with a blue band, the same shade as that which features elsewhere on the jersey. 

The shorts are relatively simple and are black with a blue band at the base of the thigh, similar to that which features on the jersey. According to the team, the teal shade of blue pays homage to the “rich-pearling beds” surrounding the kingdom of Bahrain. 

Arkéa-B&B Hotels

Arkéa-Samsic is no more, with the Breton team now going by Arkéa-B&B Hotels (remember them?). Why the budget hotel chain is obsessed with sponsoring middling French teams, we will never know, but its addition to the team has not meant a return of Glaz , as it fits into the red of Arkéa.

It is not too different to last season, but it has changed a bit, with less black piping and more red generally. It apparently references the legend of Arthur and Excalibur, which I always thought was a British legend, but is apparently also linked to Brittany - the Celtic connection is possibly why. 

“Our colours remain red and black," the team's general manager, Emmanuel Hubert, said. "These have become a real landmark, a reference over the years within the professional peloton, as well as an identification model for our supporters.

“You all know our history, linked to the Breton territory. This is why our 2024 jersey was designed around the theme “EXCALIBUR”, a legendary Breton sword. This 2024 vintage 'breathes' our origins, our land.”

Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale

Another French team with a name change is AG2R who will go by Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale next season. As a result, Decathlon blue is brought to the forefront of the kit and there is no longer room for brown shorts.

The text remains on a slant, as it has for AG2R Citroën for the past few years, but there is no more red and the effect is to promote the team's new budget retail partner. 

No more brown shorts, but black. I think this is a shame.

Red Bull concludes deal to purchase UCI WorldTour team Bora-Hansgrohe

E nergy drinks giant Red Bull has completed its acquisition of Bora-Hansgrohe, the German-based WordTour team, to make its first entry into professional road cycling.

Red Bull, which has worked with Bora-Hansgrohe and its junior development team in recent years, filed a notice with Austria’s Federal Competition Authority of its intent to acquire a controlling interest in the team in January.

The Austria-based firm has now purchased a 51% stake in RD Pro Cycling GmbH & Co KG and RD Beteiligungs GmbH, the two companies that own and manage the team.

The two companies have been owned or controlled by team founder and manager Ralph Denk, his family, and other partners. Denk, a former cyclist, previously held the majority stake and will continue as team manager.

In addition, Red Bull will become a title partner of the team alongside German companies Bora and Hansgrohe.

Beginning with this year’s Tour de France, the team will ride under the name Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe.

Denk said: “We have always been in a very healthy position and have achieved an extraordinary level together with Bora and Hansgrohe. And we also want to continue to win in the future.

“That's why I was looking for another strong partner who fits with me and our current team, shares our vision, and acts innovatively and sustainably. We have known Red Bull as a team partner for three years and they are known as a sponsor and developer in the sport like no other.

“We now have access to the Red Bull world. This knowledge is unique in the world of sports, and we look forward to benefiting from this expertise and taking the next steps together.”

The cycling team was founded by Denk in 2009 and launched as a UCI Continental team, NetApp, for the 2010 season. It then progressed to ProContinental level in 2011 and in 2013, became NettApp-Endura, before being renamed Bora-Argon 18 in 2015.

On entering WorldTour level in 2017, the team was named Bora-Hansgrohe and signed then-world champion Peter Sagan. The team has since then worked closely with Red Bull and uses the company’s athlete performance center in Thalgau, Austria.

Its junior development team, meanwhile, is named Red Bull Junior Brothers.

From 2025, Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe will launch a new under-23 team, with the long-term development of young riders from within their own ranks a key part of the new strategy.

The acquisition adds to Red Bull’s investments in sport, which includes motor racing’s Formula 1 through the Red Bull Racing and Scuderia Alpha Tauri teams, soccer’s RB Leipzig, RB Salzburg, and New York Red Bulls, and ice hockey’s EC Salzburg.

"Red Bull concludes deal to purchase UCI WorldTour team Bora-Hansgrohe" was originally created and published by Sportcal , a GlobalData owned brand.

What are the budgets of the WorldTour cycling teams in 2023?

Mathew Mitchell

• Published on March 31, 2023
• in Men's Cycling

Teams rarely discuss their actual budget figures, although a recent trend has seen Richard Plugge of Jumbo-Visma claim that they are around 5th or 6th in the table of budgets this season. So with plenty of smoke and mirrors, it’s hard to really know for sure the exact budget figures. What we can do is provide some solid guesses to the best of our knowledge. But there is a margin for error in each and an exact placing may be slightly inaccurate.

Teams are told by the UCI what percentile they are in when it comes to filing their budget details, so team managers know roughly how they stack up compared to other teams. This is again a fiercely guarded secret though.

A cycling team’s budget is typically spent on a variety of expenses related to the team’s operation, including:

• Salaries for riders and staff: A significant portion of a team’s budget is typically allocated to paying the salaries of riders and staff. This includes not only the riders themselves, but also coaches, trainers, mechanics, and other support personnel.
• Travel and accommodations: Professional cycling teams often travel extensively throughout the racing season, which can be a major expense. Teams must pay for airfare, hotels, and other travel-related expenses for their riders and staff.
• Equipment and gear: Cycling teams must also invest in high-quality bikes, helmets, clothing, and other equipment for their riders. This can be a significant expense, as top-of-the-line equipment can be very expensive.
• Race fees and other expenses: In order to compete in races, teams must pay race entry fees and cover other expenses related to racing, such as food and transportation costs.
• Marketing and advertising: Many cycling teams are sponsored by companies that use the team as a way to advertise their products or services. Teams may use some of their budget to invest in marketing and advertising efforts to promote their sponsors.
• Miscellaneous expenses: There are a number of other miscellaneous expenses that can add up quickly, such as team uniforms, medical expenses, and insurance.

The budgets of WorldTour cycling teams can vary greatly depending on factors such as team size, sponsorships, and success on the professional cycling circuit.

2023 WorldTour team budgets ranking

• UAE Team Emirates: Estimated budget of €55 million to €60 million.
• Ineos Grenadiers: Estimated budget of €50 million to €55 million.
• Jumbo-Visma: Estimated budget of €50 million to €55 million.
• Lidl-Trek: Estimated budget of €30 million to €35 million.
• Soudal-QuickStep: Estimated budget of €25 million to €30 million.
• Bahrain Victorious: Estimated budget of €25 million to €30 million.
• Bora-Hansgrohe: Estimated budget of €25 million to €30 million.
• AG2R Citroën Team: Estimated budget of €20 million to €25 million.
• Movistar Team: Estimated budget of €20 million to €25 million.
• Groupama-FDJ: Estimated budget of €20 million to €25 million.
• Alpecin-Deceuninck: Estimated budget of €15 million to €25 million.
• Team dsm-firmenich: Estimated budget of €15 million to €25 million.
• Jayco-AlUla: Estimated budget of €15 million to €25 million.
• Astana Qazaqstan Team: Estimated budget of €18 million to €25 million.
• EF Education-EasyPost: Estimated budget of €18 million to €22 million.
• Cofidis: Estimated budget of €15 million to €20 million.
• Arkéa-Samsic: Estimated budget of €12 million to €20 million.
• Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert Matériaux: Estimated budget of €12 million to €18 million.

It is important to note that these estimates are not official and can vary from year to year. Additionally, some teams may have additional sources of funding or sponsorships that are not reflected in these budgets.

LONDON (AP) — British cyclist Luke Rowe, who played a role in five Tour de France victories for three different leaders, will retire at the end of the season, his Ineos Grenadiers team said Friday.

The 34-year-old Rowe, a good classic rider, has been with the team which was previously known as Sky since 2012.

He took part in eight consecutive editions of the Tour, helping Chris Froome, Geraint Thomas and Egan Bernal to victory, often in the role of road captain.

Rowe had signed a new 2-year contract to remain with Ineos Grenadiers through to 2025 but decided to bring forward his retirement by a season after getting injured in a crash during the E3 Saxo Classic in March.

“I’ve had an amazing career and I have absolutely no regrets,” he said. “But the last 18 months have been testing in different ways and with this latest crash and resulting injury, it just feels like now is the right time to bow out, head home to Wales and spend a bit more time with my family.”

Rowe says he still hopes to race again this year, “with the Tour of Britain being my dream race to end on.”

Giro d'Italia 2024: How to Watch a UCI World Tour Cycling Livestream for Free

It's the first Grand Tour of the 2024 season.

The battle for the maglia rosa begins this weekend, as the world's best riders take on the 107th edition of the Giro d'Italia. 

The first of the three Grand Tours in 2024, this year's event sees two-time Tour de France winner Tadej Pogačar make his debut in the race for UAE Team Emirates.

The Slovenian star is marked out as favorite to win with the bookies, with strong competition set to come from last year's runner-up Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) and Ben O'Connor (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale) over the course of the 21-stage event. 

Below, we'll outline the best  live TV streaming services  to use to watch the Giro d'Italia live wherever you are in the world.

Giro d'Italia 2024: Where and when is it?

How to watch the Giro d'Italia 2024 online from anywhere using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view the race locally, you may need a different way to watch -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to what you want to watch. If your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, non-blackout area. Most VPNs, like our  Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN , make it really easy to do this. 

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions. 

Looking for other options? Be sure to check out some of the other great  VPN deals  taking place right now.

Best VPN for streaming

ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices. It's normally $13 a month, and you can sign up for ExpressVPN and save 35% -- the equivalent of $8.32 a month -- if you get an annual subscription.

Quick tips for streaming Giro d'Italia 2024 using a VPN 

• With four variables at play -- your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN -- your experience and success when streaming the 2024 Giro d'Italia live may vary.
• If you don't see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the "search for city or country" option.
• If you're having trouble after you've turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs -- like Roku -- don't have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
• All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network's sports app, you'll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location. 
• And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend  Brave .

Giro d'Italia stage 3 Live - The sprinters' first dance

Tour of turkey: van den broek secures overall win as final stage is neutralised.

Merhawi Kudus and Paul Double round out final podium as riders roll through 105.4km on wet roads in Istanbul

The Tour of Turkey drew to a close on Sunday with a fully neutralised final stage in Istanbul after race organisers announced a curtailment of the route.

The announcement came through early in the morning of the closing stage 8, with organisers stating "Due to the slippery condition of the roads, it's been decided that stage 8 will be neutralised.

"The peloton will ride the planned route but only one lap instead of 5 and will proceed to Sultanahmet with the distinctive jersey holders at the front of the peloton."

As a result, the peloton tackled a rainy ride on wet roads in Istanbul, rolling over the final fourth-category hill of the race and across the line without any contest.

The neutralisation, which saw three laps of the closing circuit taken out as well as the final 20km, meant that there would be no final chance for the sprinters to grab a win on the tricky 5%, 600-metre closing ramp.

It also meant that yellow jersey Frank van den Broek (DSM-Firmenich PostNL) could finish his race without any threat of attack from podium sitters Merhawi Kudus (Terengganu) and Paul Double (Polti-Kometa).

23-year-old Van den Broek now comes away from the Tour of Turkey with his first career stage race victory under his belt after triumphing on the queen stage summit finish at Manisa on Friday. He beats Kudus by four seconds in the overall standings while Double takes third overall, nine seconds down.

Elsewhere, Van den Broek's DSM teammate Tobias Lund Andresen completes a near-perfect week for the team, himself having won three stages to go with Van den Broek's triumph and Fabio Jakobsen 's opening stage victory.

Andresen comes away with the points jersey, having overhauled Giovanni Lonardi (Polti-Kometa) with his third stage win on Saturday. Vinzent Dorn (Bike Aid) wins the mountain classification, while Q36.5 come away with the team prize.

Due to the slippery condition of the roads, it's been decided that stage 8 will be neutralised. The peloton will ride the planned route but only one lap instead of 5 and will proceed to Sultanahmet with the distinctive jerseys holders at the front of the peloton. #TUR2024 April 28, 2024
