Red Bull Team under Umbruch: Primoz Roglics departure and possible new additions

Red Bull plans to realign

The departure of the bike star Primoz Roglic at Tour de France has caused the top team Red Bull to plan a realignment. Sports director Rolf Aldag emphasized that despite the setback, the tour was not over, but it is now more difficult to shine in the current situation.

why a realignment is necessary

The failure of Alexander Wlassow and finally the withdrawal of Roglic mean the final end of the team's touring dreams from Raubling. In order to continue to be successful, it is now necessary to reinvent yourself and develop new strategies in order to get back to the top in the future.

planned changes in the team

Red Bull plans not to sink into self -pity, but to actively work on a fresh start. The team hopes for success on individual stages that could accommodate the remaining six drivers. This is to be achieved primarily through an offensive driving style and outlier groups.

It is expected that the team will be changed significantly next season. More young talents are to be encouraged and investments are to be made in the width of the team. Team boss Ralph Denk announced that both the driver team and the employees will be strengthened and restructured in the background.

new drivers and rumors

It is already known that the climbing specialist Lennard Kämna will leave the team to switch to Lidl-Trek. This is not the only departure, because Jan Tratnik and Laurence Pithie should also join the team. It is also speculated that Red Bull has a strong interest in Remco Evenepoel, which is currently still bound to Soudal-Quick Step.

The partnership with Red Bull has associated many drivers with the team, which indicates that there could be further exciting changes in the team in the coming months.
