For Jasper his schedule remains largely the same as last year when he had some solid success. He starts his season in Tasmania which is new and was the last race we picked for him. For this season we are looking at improvement in one day classics starting with Milano-Sanremo where he'll be supported by Ivan Siric, but he'll also be working with Dusan Rajovic this season alternating between those two lead out riders. The race that will most likely define his season will be the Grand Tour, as he's off to the Tour this year. Competition there should be fierce, but we expect Jasper to get more than one podium result in France.

Looking forward to getting my ass whipped by Pogacar in Suisse.

I'm happy to avoid Siric in the Cheshire Cycling Tour with Bini (not great that he's at our goal race Roma Maxima though)

and only have to face Pogi in Colombia with Amezawa. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if you go 5/5 in goals, depending on who Pogi faces in Switzerland. Good luck!

For the most part Jaka takes over the role that was held by Schlegel with a very similar calendar. One main difference is that he will be going to both Grand Tours without Pogacar, but that's a change that we were always planning for. Outside the GTs where he'll most likely be hunting for stage results, the main hope for Jaka to have a good season is to be competitive in the one day races where he can hopefully put his strong stamina and resistance to good use.
