Bahrain Victorious has unveiled its roster for the forthcoming UAE Tour, with Pello Bilbao having his sights set on a high finish in the GC and Phil Bauhaus being designated as the team's sprinter.
Pello Bilbao's season kicked off with a less-than-ideal result at the Schwalbe Classic, but he soon found his stride, securing a win in the third stage of the Santos Tour Down Under. He followed this up with a silver medal in the second stage of the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana, and he is now hoping to parlay his third-place finish in last year's GC into an overall triumph.
“The lineup is a really good mixture of experienced members of the team, with Pello Bilbao leading the team and hoping to get another podium finish. He will be supported by Wout Poels in the mountains as well. We’ve also got the experienced Nikias Arndt, who is new to the team and has already performed extremely well in Australia. He will be leading out Bauhaus, who also had an exceptional start to the season and will be looking to take his chances here,” said the Sports Director Neil Stephens.
Bahrain Victorious for UAE Tour: Pello Bilbao, Nikias Arndt, Phil Bauhaus, Matevž Govekar, Fran Miholjević, Wout Poels and Johan Price-Pejtersen.

- A mindset that reminds me of Tim Declerq. I loved watching that guy just pound away the kilometers, hours at the front, holding an entire breakaway in check on his own. Bjerg seems like a similar guy. Curling, the team sport.RidesHills04-11-2026
- He will be lol, but he can still win on the climbs hahaawp04-11-2026
- I would love to have his inconsistency. How many wins this year? 2 TdF stages, a WC, a Euro championship, San Sebastian, multiple wins early year. Monument podiums. I'd take it. I don't think he has a chance in the TdF, but he is still amazing.mij04-11-2026
- He's not going to win the TdF. Maybe if they make every single stage a TT he could win. But I still believe Tadej would just sharpen his TT skills and win.mij04-11-2026
- You beat me to it. Should he make a full recovery (likely) and go light early in the year. One, two, three. Don't ask me, I don't give a damn. Should he be on a Feel-Like-He's-Fixin'-to-Die High.Yepperoni04-11-2026
- The deciding factor may be the (TBD) number of (any type of) kilometers without Pogacar.Yepperoni04-11-2026
- Unexplained chronic fatigue is an all too common bitch. The hard to find definitive answer may lie buried in gut mechanisms. A mystery of the deep.Yepperoni04-11-2026
- It's weird to say Evenepoel would be making a "serious mistake by adding the 2027 Giro d'Italia to his calendar, warning that such a decision could even be interpreted as a lack of confidence in his ability to win the Tour de France." It may well be a mistake but with so many commentators (of all sorts) continuously claiming almost everything Remco does as being a mistake, almost nobody should care what the pundits and the disparagers should say. His team may not want him to do the Giro, and that matters. But it's possibly or probably up to Remco to decide and it may not have to be decided on until a month or so ahead of the race. Yes , Remco is inconsistent much like the majority of the best riders but he's enjoying a period of not having been recently injured (or sick). Whatever he does he need not be concerned with critics who will second guess any perceived failure no matter what. I suspect he will have enough other races on his schedule so he won't be considering it. But the worst reason to not race it is because of what some will say - humorous that be.Yepperoni04-11-2026
- I'll say clean sweep all grand tourZamorano04-11-2026
- And the place he calls home is in Slovenia with his parents.RidesHills04-11-2026
