Max Schachmann to leave Bora after six years with the German formation
CyclingThursday, 18 July 2024 at 08:30
Max Schachmann won't enjoy racing with a Red Bull logo on his jersey for too long as his services at Ralph Denk's team are no longer as valued as both sides would have liked.
But it's not a massive surprise at all. Schachmann's best years in Bora were in the first three years after making a move from Quick-Step at the end of 2018. Among the 30-year-old's greatest success from the period are two overall triumphs at Paris-Nice, podium at Liege-Bastogne-Liege and two German champion titles.

Recent years were a bit more modest for Schachmann who was often struggling with injuries and illnesses. However 2024 saw a slight rise in his performances, as witnessed at the Giro d'Italia where Schachmann finished second in the opening stage, adding a fifth place from a time trial - his other great weapon.
After six seasons, the collaboration between Schachmann and Red Bull -BORA - hansgrohe is coming to an end. Multiple sources confirm to WielerFlits that Schachmann is on his way to Jayco AlUla. The Australian formation will take over a second rider from their German counterpart as reports suggest Patrick Gamper will also make a move to Jayco.
Schachmann is the next German top rider to leave Ralph Denk's team. Emanuel Buchmann, who's been on bad terms with Denk since non-nomination for Giro d'Italia in spring, won't continue with the team. In addition Lennard Kämna is linked to Lidl-Trek. Thus the globalization of the formerly strictly German formation continues as their new deal with Red Bull sees their goal to settle on top of the cycling world take priority over the sense of "national pride".

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
