Emanuel Buchmann and Sam Welsford return to lead BORA - hansgrohe with 'something to prove' at Tour de Hongrie

BORA - hansgrohe's stars Emanuel Buchmann and Sam Welsford have certainly envisioned themselves in a different country with green-white-red flag at this time of the year, yet here they are, leading the German team at Tour de Hongrie.
This year's edition of the Hungarian 2.Pro race aspires to become the hardest yet, with two days for those who don't fear riding uphill. Stage three will be the biggest test to Buchmann's climbing legs, with return of traditional Gyöngyös-Kékestető (12.1km a 5.6%).
The German champion previously made an emotional comment about team crossing him out of the Giro d'Italia lineup after devoting his preparation to the Italian Grand tour. Tour de Hongrie will provide him a perfect opportunity to prove doubters wrong.
Meanwhile Sam Welsford was removed from the Giro d'Italia selection, after miserable Tour of Turkey where the Australian was unable to leave a mark. Stages 1 and 2 will be a good shot for Welsford to leave behind the Turkish misery and get a fresh start into summer.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
