"It will be noticed by all the big teams" - Uno-X Mobility braced for interest in Jonas Abrahamsen after second at Dwars Door Vlaanderen
Cycling
Although many of the big, pre-race favourites crashed out at Dwars Door Vlaanderen 2024, Jonas Abrahamsen's impressive ride to finish second cannot be understated.
One of the riders to form the early breakaway, Abrahamsen found himself well clear of the mass crash that took out the likes of Wout van Aert, Mads Pedersen and Biniam Girmay. Then, even as the chase group regained contact with the front of the bunch, the Norwegian kept competitive, eventually finish the aforementioned second behind Matteo Jorgenson.
"It was very impressive and very well driven. It's incredibly fun that it happens to a rider who has been with the team from the very beginning. Today he was just insanely strong," Uno-X Mobility's CEO, Thor Hushovd reflected post-race in conversation with Eurosport. "He rode very well today. There is often something about a three-week tour and the Tour de France that does something to riders, and it really has for 'Abra'. He has improved considerably."
Given the impressive nature of Abrahamsen's performance however, Hushovd and Uno-X Mobility are braced for interest from bigger teams. "There is no doubt that it will be noticed by all the big teams," Hushovd admits. "But fortunately he has a couple of years left with us. It is a rider we must take good care of."

- Mads is the best: I didn’t even know there were rules in cyclocross. I just thought it was a matter of: ‘Go, three, two, one, ride.’ It’s like a street fight, a kind of underground brawl. It’s the MMA of cycling he gives the best quotes.mij12-11-2026

- That stint in the Pink was so good. If memory serves he struggled with the champagne cuz he'd never been on the podium before. I feel like it gave him some self-belief, and yeah - then the move to Visma to be one of their lieutenants has really brought him to the best version of himself.wrsty12-11-2026
- So, you never really compared Paul Seixas with his main rival Isaac Del Toro why jump to Pogačar? They've (Paul & Isaac) raced together here and there, and they've both shared in wins and losses, I think they should be compared to each other, even with Vingegaard and Remco first before even touching Pogačar. From your writing it's like he's better than Vingegaard, Remco and Del Toro already that his main target is now Pogačar 🤔Sadick11-11-2026
