This page is dedicated to BORA – hansgrohe Team 2022 Presentation.
BORA – hansgrohe Team ended the 2021 season as the 6th highest ranked team in the UCI World Tour.
The departure of Peter Sagan is a big pair of cycling shoes to fill. It is interesting to observe how Ralph Denk, the Bora – Hansgrohe team General Manager, is reshuffling the team for 2022.
