He continues, "I totally understand – we're in a situation where I'm in the top 10 in points for the team, so for me to go to Worlds would be losing two or three weeks of racing … I'd probably lose seven or eight one-day races, which are super crucial in the points battle. It's a bit of a shame, but I just want to make the best of it and try to win a race."
Jorgenson blames
UCI for the current situation, forcing teams to compete in small events to stay in WorldTour. "In the end, you're maybe causing teams to end. It's a hard situation. But that's the way it is, and we did know about it, there's no excuse. We'll try to make the best of it,” concluded Jorgenson.
