With the signing of
Alexander Hajek and
Emil Herzog,
BORA - hansgrohe continues the path of its own talent development. Both riders were nurtured in the junior squad, Team Auto Eder, where they celebrated their first major successes. They'll meet their former Auto Eder teammates Cian Ujitdebroeks and Luis-Joe Lührs in the team.
Herzog's biggest success so far came when he became the Junior World Champion in Wollongong, where he defeated his currently teammate Antonio Morgado in an epic battle. Hajek might lack such stand-out result, but his season where he finished in top 10 for a total of ten times including handful of podiums is no less impressive.
