Were you surprised to see UAE chasing there and other teams getting involved?

Yeah, look, I think UAE are going for the team competition or they're trying to win everything, so that's...

I mean, that's, that's...

I suppose they can if they want to try, but that does...

it is a bit frustrating.

But in the end, of course, Trek would've always, you know, tried to bring it back too for, for Mads, and it just shows how tired everybody is and how hard it was because, I mean, they had a lot of riders there, and they couldn't bring it back.

So I mean, I think everybody's super cooked and super happy.

At what point were you certain the break would stay away, if that point came at all?

But what's it like coming to a brand like Pinarello who has so much experience winning the biggest races? Is there a difference in mentality or can you describe it at all?

Yeah, look, I mean, I think, thanks.

You know, the passion that oozes from, you know, from Fausta and from the organization is evident.

You know, it's not just a commercial bike brand.

It's a bike brand that's built with absolute love and passion and the lust to be better, I guess, you know.

And so that's quite cool.

But we've had some of the best or some really good bike brands partners in the past.

This is, is, Is this part of your DNA as kind of being an opportunist and finding opportunities for the riders? And is this a message you give to them?
