"It’s a bit of disappointment to be leaving, but it’s the best decision for me" - Ineos DS Matteo Tosatto heads to Tudor Pro Cycling

Matteo Tosatto has confirmed that he will take up a sports director role at Tudor Pro Cycling next year, closing a six-year window at Ineos Grenadiers. The Italian has told GCN that he made the decision to move on for personal reasons and in order to seek out a new challenge in the sport.
"I decided to leave because it was the best decision for me. I have a new big opportunity now to go with Tudor and that’s the best for me at this particular moment," the former pro rider said. "I had a super time at Ineos for the last six years. Now it’s a bit of disappointment to be leaving but it’s the right time. I don’t know if the team is happy but like I said, it’s the best decision for me."
"I have a lot of great memories from the team but the best for me was probably the 2020 Giro d’Italia that we won with Tao. That changed the mentality within the team. I decided the tactics in that race and I also really enjoyed the Strade Bianche win with Tom Pidcock, but my favourite memory was the Giro in 2020," Tosatto said.
"I decided to go to Tudor because I spoke to them many times, and I spoke to Fabian Cancellara. They have had a big programme for many years and the big step in 2024 is to get into a big tour, maybe the Giro d’Italia. They’re ready for the first big Tour and they are waiting for a wildcard," Tosatto said.

- Rules are very different from country to country and evolve with time. At one point I couldn’t even give my son my nationality because being unmarried, you’d have to register at least 3 months before the birth, a time when many people know neither the name or sex, and actually, no-one even knows if the birth will take place. In England there is now a kid with the wrong sex on his birth certificate as mistakes (even if by an administration) can no longer be corrected. I just had a 3rd child, we discovered a bump on his head at 2 weeks that wasn’t there 24h before, we ended up at the police accused of child abuse and about to have him taken from us due to staff incompetence and inexperience. Luckily a pediatric neurosurgeon has now confirmed this is not so uncommon after natural childbirth without instruments but most medical employees aren’t informed of it so automatically accuse parents of negligence/lying whatever. We discovered an association that already helped over 1000 wrongly accused couples (just those who found the association in just one country). I almost got arrested in one country for forgery after trying to convert my driver’s license as they thought I must have tampered the dates to get it aged 17 which isn’t possible for them. I can’t access half official services because the online forms are not set up to accept foreign phone number as data but a number is obligatory. That’s just a quick start, anyone who’s ever had to move internationally will confirm, there’s very little that’s not done differently elsewhere than “at home” The world is full of bureaucratic shit destroying society.Mistermaumau23-11-2024

- you was so exhausted, ok, then why to ride third-class races immediately after the Tour? do a mix of rest, relax and soft-medium training in your family environment and after the birth of your baby, a month of full, intense training for the world championship! prestigious and suitable race for you (even MAS did well). Sometimes I don't understand Jonas's calendar.
maria2024202423-11-2024 - it’s just a brutal sport, and if you don’t believe in yourself — especially when you’re young — then what’s the point. i get it. that said, the voice of ultra competitive Mads Pedersen after last year’s Roubaix does echo in one’s ears. “mathieu was LEAGUES better than the rest of us… Yeah, i’d like to BELIEVE i could win this race one day, but after what mathieu just did i think that might be difficult…” and that’s MADS PEDERSEN. still, what can pithie do BUT believe?OCexile23-11-2024
