Team Jayco AlUla have revealed their lineup for the upcoming UAE Tour with the 29-year-old Dylan Groenewegen named as team leader indicating a focus of sprint stage wins.
"I'm really looking forward to racing the UAE Tour and we want to win," Groenewegen revealed to Team Jayco AlUla's official website. Whilst Sport Director Dave McPartland said, "We're ready for a week of hard racing in the UAE and we're bringing a top team to go for stage wins."
Supporting Groenewegen in his quest for sprint success will be 30-year-old Elmar Reinders, a pair of Jayco AlUla's new signings Blake Quick and Jan Maas, the experienced Luka Mezgec and the Australian duo of Michael Hepburn and Callum Scotson.
"We have one of the best sprinters in the world with Dylan Groenewegen," says McPartland. "We'll be backing him 100% and he's already shown the legs he has in this early part of the season, after already taking a stage win at the Saudi Tour."
Team Jayco AlUla for UAE Tour: Dylan Groenewegen, Luka Mezgec, Callum Scotson, Elmar Reinders, Michael Hepburn, Jan Maas and Blake Quick.

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
