“I was portrayed as the devil" Bruyneel was really a talented team manager. His minor flaws: "coordinated, well-funded, and sophisticated doping regime" "hand-in-hand in implementing the team-wide doping programme" "was involved in trafficking and administering prohibited substances and methods, including EPO, blood transfusions, testosterone, human growth hormone, and cortisone. Teammates testified that nothing significant happened without Bruyneel's knowledge and approval." "fostered an environment where doping was considered a "fact of life" and necessary for success, effectively making it a condition of survival on the team. He also participated in or assisted with the cover-up of positive tests and doping violations." Those quotes show Bruyneel's true talent.18-02-2026 13:39

I dont like the TTT in the TDF. Riders with potential to win or be in the top 5 or 10 can lose minutes with a weak team. Strong riders on strong teams love it cause it gets rid of potential competition29-01-2026 20:46

Meaning he hasnt been 1, 2, or 3rd in a 3 week race yet. Maybe in 2026 or 2027.26-11-2025 20:34

Without Lipo, Red Bull only has Remco for 3 week tours and he wont win if TP or JV is there. Primoz is too old, Giulio Pellizzari unproven, and the rest are super domestiques. Even Almeida, Del Toro and Ayuso have a good chance to beat Remco. I think Remco's 3 week tour winning potential has come and gone.26-11-2025 15:02

"he had his hunting accident, so he was obviously not in great shape, he was overweight" Bruyneel mentions 3 things that can reduce some ones VO2max by 20%, which Lemond's 74.7 falls under. A fact which any competent DS (in this case a Doping Sportif) should know. Clearly Bruyneel's expertise is in how to dope riders, lie and cheat people of their livelihoods.24-11-2025 13:26
