The team this year has been completely dominating the calendar, winning the Giro d'Italia and Tour de France with Tadej Pogacar who has brought in 22 World Tour victories himself (more than Team Visma | Lease a Bike or any other team), the team is unmatched at the top of the UCI rankings but even individually, the Slovenian has over double the points of second place Remco Evenepoel.
There is a huge budget behind the team, and so not only does it have quality leaders, but also tremendous depth. 19 riders have now won in this season alone. Isaac Del Toro, Brandon McNulty, Finn Fisher-Black, Adam Yates, Juan Ayuso, Marc Hirschi, Tadej Pogacar, Diego Ulissi, Jan Christen, Pavel Sivakov, António Morgado, João Almeida, Tim Wellens, Nils Politt, Felix Großschartner, Domen Novak, Jay Vine, Marc Soler and now Filippo Baroncin have all raised their arms in glory.
