Dylan Teuns makes his debut for Israel - Premier Tech at Egmont Cycling Race, eyes Bretagne and Lombardia
Cycling
Dylan Teuns as been a late-season signing for Israel - Premier Tech who are looking to save their season and keep their position at World Tour level, and he may be one of the most important pieces in this battle in which the Israeli team are in disadvantage.
Although not being present at the Vuelta a Espana, Teuns will make his debut for the team today at the Egmont Cycling Race, and tomorrow will be a strong contender for the Druivenkoers - Overijse. These two consecutive races will form the first block of racing for Teuns, who has won Flèche Wallone and a stage at the Tour de Romandie earlier this year. “I’m really happy to finally be getting back to racing and lining up for the first time with Israel – Premier Tech. Egmont Cycling Race and Druivenkoers – Overijse are two good races for me with a tough parcours so I think I can do well," Teuns said in a press release.
"Of course, it’s always different racing in a new team environment. But I know a lot of the guys well, I had a few weeks to get used to new equipment and I’m loving the Factor bike. I’m excited to see what I can do for the team in Belgium this week," he added.
Teuns will be a crucial piece for the team who have an almost 1000-point deficit towards Movistar Team who sit in 18th place in the UCI rankings. He will however have a favourable calendar to score points, as next weekend he'll be racing the Bretagne Classic. In September he'll race the Tour of Britain where he should also be a contender, and late in the year he'll have the preparation races and Il Lombardia to complete the season.

- I see (elsewhere) that Alaphilippe had more to say than what got relayed in this stub. Me: he was very good early but his latter third trajectory was the pits. His old boss did what he could (huffed and puffed) but Julian couldn't get his greatness back. Sometimes I wonder if crashes that didn't look like much changed the course of the rider.flyer14-11-2026
- I wouldn't classify it as a gift because the nasty consequences of taking it from Sepp would have been great and would persist and he knew it.flyer14-11-2026
- Ok. Tratnik's good and Red Bull's better so Tratnik may get what he wants.flyer14-11-2026
- Ok. So just saying he wasn't enjoying racing anymore is some kind of explanation? Me saying I don't enjoy his explanation is more explaining than he did.flyer14-11-2026
- Buitrago, was he their best rider in 2026? He's the chief loss for them and Martinez and Tiberi (especially) have to step up or they will be overtaken by Bahrain's younger riders like Omrzel. I'm still somewhat high on Martinez but Tiberi, after showing signs of promise, has fizzled. Bahrain still has a good team but they need to improve and exceed expectations. I'd be happy if Mohoric could manage to return to his better form for maybe one last year at least.flyer14-11-2026
- Hmmm, "... I just gained 30 seconds purely off the bike. Because it's really a big, big improvement compared to the previous bike". Is that marketing for Specialized or serious valid hype, or something in between? Very likely the former.flyer14-11-2026
- Nothing revelatory or controversial. Why do we have to report on Bruyneel's or Armstrong's thinking. It's a shame and enough that the Move's on TV and that people watch it .flyer14-11-2026
- Makes sense that training from home is a big asset or advantage but it's still remarkable that he can put in three quality majors and not pay some heavy price for the exertion. I wish he would have won that tour stage that his crash while leading allowed Carapaz the win. He's a darn good rider and teammate.flyer14-11-2026
- Sounds like we all agree with the over under exaggeration: "The German’s signing does not guarantee that Evenepoel will win the Tour in 2027. "flyer14-11-2026
- Seixas appears to be that good but if he isn't (an absolute rival to Pogacar) he would have plenty of company in rising stars that did not go on to fully meet the expectations of many. That Pogacar wasn't the greatest (as great) sooner can't be transposed onto another's development. It may be not that simple.flyer14-11-2026
