Cycling: According to their own statements, the Cannondale-Drapac team is about to end. After the withdrawal of a planned donor, the license for the coming season cannot be guaranteed. This would put Rigoberto Uran back on the market.
Will a Twitter post save the team's future?
Michael Woods is currently ninth in the overall standings of the Vuelta a España. Teammate Davide Villella has been wearing the mountain jersey for days and wants to defend it to the end. But what happens after the season, nobody knows from the Cannondale-Drapac team at the moment. Reported yesterday Saturday The Telegraph that Cannondale-Drapac's future is uncertain. Just a few days ago, the contracts of Rigoberto Uran and Dylan Van Baarle were extended. Therefore, it was initially assumed to be an unfounded rumor. However, the same evening the team management confirmed the report. A sponsor who had been planned had withdrawn completely unexpectedly. Without this, the WorldTour license for the coming season cannot be secured. Now team boss Jonathan Vaughters is even looking for a new sponsor via Twitter.
