- Big surprise this. Wonder who Visma will replace him with? What a way to finish your career - with a Grand Tour win and a Tour stage.
- Simon Yates to retire with immediate effect. It is sudden and looks to have surprised the Visma-LAB team as he was picked to pose with colleagues to show off the 2026 kit and the team shared the photos on 30 December
- Can’t help speculate if he might have been pissed or disappointed when he learned that Jonas wanted to ride the Giro… 🤔
Rather odd timing. Any insight into his change of heart?
