Cian ist und bleibt ein Mitglied von BORA – hansgrohe, auch in der kommenden Saison 2024. Er ist vertraglich bis zum 31. Dezember 2024 an uns gebunden.
Diese Nachricht von BORA-hansgrohe widerspricht somit den heutigen Meldungen, dass der Fahrer zur nächsten Saison zu Jumbo-Visma bzw. Visma – Lease a Bike wechseln wird.
Es bleibt spannend.

20-jähriger Hagenes feiert größten Sieg der Karriere in Münster
Münster, 3. Oktober – Per Strand Hagenes (Jumbo-Visma) hat den Sparkassen Münsterland Giro 2023 für sich entschieden. Der Norweger, 2021 Juniorenweltmeister, siegte als Solist vor dem Schloss in Münster. Dahinter entschied Kaden Groves (Alpecin-Deceuninck) den Sprint einer kleinen Gruppe vor Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek) für sich.
Bei herbstlicher Witterung mit viel Regen und Wind, aber Sonne im absoluten Finale, verpasste der nun jüngste Sieger des Sparkassen Münsterland Giros, der eigentlich noch im Development-Team von Jumbo-Visma steht und erst nächste Saison Profi wird, sogar das Jubeln. „Ich habe erst 200 Meter hinter der Ziellinie realisiert, dass ich gewonnen habe, als da die Ordner und der Staff vom Team auf mich gewartet haben. Ich war den ganzen Tag am Limit, habe mich eigentlich auch gar nicht so gut gefühlt. Aber dann sagt mein Teamkollege Christophe Laporte, dass ich was versuchen soll“, erklärte der erst im Juli 20 Jahre alt gewordene Hagenes.
„Wir waren zahlenmäßig unterlegen, und wenn ein Team wie Jumbo-Visma drei starke Fahrer vorne hat, dann ist es schwer, etwas dagegen zu tun“, so der Zweite Groves.
„Mich hat es ein wenig an ein Juniorenrennen erinnert – von Beginn an Vollgas bis zum Ende. Ich hatte nicht mal Zeit zum Pinkeln“, sagte Ex-Weltmeister Pedersen mit einem Augenzwinkern und legte nach. „Wir hatten eigentlich einen Massensprint erwartet. Aber BORA – hansgrohe hatte einen Plan, deswegen war es von Anfang an schwer. Es war vielleicht der härteste Tag des Jahres, und wenn das im Oktober passiert, ist das nicht so schön“, scherzte er weiter.
Fabian Wegmann zog ein positives Fazit. „Wenn zwei Profis wie Groves und Pedersen, die in diesem Jahr schon so viel erreicht haben, hier nochmal Gas geben, zeigt das den Stellenwert dieses Rennens“, freute sich der Sportlicher Leiter des Sparkassen Münsterland Giros. „Es ging hier den ganzen Tag rauf und runter, links und rechts. Dazu das Wetter. Es war richtig hart.“
Schon 15 Kilometer nach dem Start und damit noch vor der ersten Bergwertung löste sich eine rund 30 Fahrer starke Gruppe um Europameister Christophe Laporte (Jumbo-Visma), Nils Politt (BORA – hansgrohe), John Degenkolb (Team dsm-firmenich), Max Walscheid (Deutsche Nationalmannschaft), Hagenes, Groves und Pedersen. Knapp zwei Minuten Vorsprung auf das Hauptfeld sprangen dabei heraus.
Im welligen Mittelteil des Rennens schrumpfte der Vorsprung der Spitzengruppe bis auf eine halbe Minute, ehe Danny van Poppel (BORA – hansgrohe) 72 Kilometer vor dem Ziel eine Attacke lancierte und die Ausreißer so auf zehn Fahrer reduzierte. Die Differenz zwischen Spitze und Hauptfeld verdoppelte sich daraufhin wieder. Erst auf der vorletzten Schlussrunde in Münster begannen in der Gruppe die Angriffe. Den entscheidenden Vorstoß setzte dann Hagenes. 2500 Meter vor dem Ziel nutzte er einen Moment des Stillstandes in der Gruppe, um sich abzusetzen und als Solist den Zielstrich zu überqueren.

The expert Herrada tames the young Grégoire
Jesus Herrada (Cofidis) showed talent, craft and mastery to win stage 11 of La Vuelta 23 on the slopes up La Laguna Negra. The Spanish puncheur made his way into a hard fought breakaway and eventually powered to victory with a perfectly timed acceleration on the most gruelling slopes of the final climb. He takes his third victory in the Spanish Grand Tour, after he won in similar circumstances in Ares del Maestrat (2019) and Cistierna (2022). At 20 years old, Romain Grégoire (Groupama-FDJ) came 2nd and Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) was 5th. Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step) accelerated but his rivals matched his pace.
After a key individual time trial in Valladolid, the peloton of La Vuelta 23 face new summits with an uphill finish on the slopes leading to Laguna Negra, overlooking the city of Vinuesa. Dan Martin won there in 2020, ahead of Primoz Roglic and Richard Carapaz. And attackers are inspired to succeed the Irish puncheur.
Ayuso crashes, Thomas attacks
The start is slightly delayed after Juan Ayuso (UAE Team Emirates) crashed on the way to km 0. Once the flag drops, a flurry of attacks ensue, but baroudeurs are caught one after another.
The peloton cover 47.7km in the first hour. Then a group of 26 eventually manage to get away, featuring two previous stage winners in La Vuelta 23 – Andreas Kron (Lotto Dstny) and Filippo Ganna (Ineos Grenadiers) – as well as established stars such as Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) or Luis Leon Sanchez (Astana Qazaqstan) and up and coming youngsters like Romain Grégoire (Groupama-FDJ) and Andrea Piccolo (EF Education-EasyPost).
Jumbo-Visma drive the bunch. The gap gets over 5’ as the riders enter the last 50 kilometres. And up to 6 minutes ahead of the final climb.
Herrada’s power
Paul Ourselin (Total Energies) attacks his breakaway rivals with 10 kilometres to go and reaches the bottom of the climb to Laguna Negra (6.5km at 6.8%, with the steepest slopes in the final kilometre) with a lead of 25’’.
Ganna drives the chase and Ourselin is caught with 5km to go. Jonathan Caicedo (EF Education-EasyPost) attacks twice but Geraint Thomas reacts himself. The Ecuadorian is caught inside the last 300 metres. And nobody can react when Jesus Herrada (Cofidis) puts the hammer down.
In the GC group, Cian Uijtdebroeks (Bora-Hansgrohe) accelerates. Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step) sprints. And everyone finishes together.

Ganna and Kuss resist Evenepoel
The individual time trial of La Vuelta 23 saw Filippo Ganna (Ineos Grenadiers) power to his first ever victory in Spain as he got the best of the world champion Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step) in Valladolid. The Italian star covered the 25.8km at an average of 56.0km/h, setting a time of 27’39’’. Evenepoel came 2nd (+16’’) and was the fastest of the GC contenders, 20 seconds ahead of Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma), while Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) lost a minute to the Belgian defending winner of La Vuelta. Riding with La Roja, Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma) set the 13th best time and only lost 17’’ to Marc Soler (UAE Team Emirates), his first chaser in the overall standings. Evenepoel moves up to the third position, with a gap of 1’09’’ to the American leader.
After the rest day, La Vuelta 23 returns to action with a key time trial (25.8km) to kick-off the second week of racing in Valladolid, a classic of the Spanish Grand Tour since it hosted the very first stage finish in 1935. Callum Scotson (Jayco AlUla) is the first rider to go, at 14:01, and Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma) will be the last rider off the ramp, at 17:02, with La Roja on his shoulders.
Bissegger can’t resist Ganna
Clément Davy (Groupama-FDJ) sets the first reference of interest, with a time of 30’55’’. But the Frenchman can’t resist the European champion Stefan Bissegger (EF Education-EasyPost), faster at every intermediate point (km 12.5 and 19.5), who eventually clocks a time of 28’58’’. The Swiss rider impressed, but he confesses he “didn’t have the best day”.
Filippo Ganna (Ineos Grenadiers) starts his effort 44 minutes after Bissegger. And he quickly shows he’s off to a flying performance. A 2-time ITT World Champion (2020, 21), holder of the hour record and current national ITT champion, the Italian star leads by 33’’ at the first intermediate point, 52’’ at the second, and 1’18’’ on the line. He averaged 56.0km/h over the 25.8km!
Evenepoel accelerates, Kuss holds on
The GC battle gets going with a strong performance from Aleksandr Vlasov (Bora-Hansgrohe), the first rider to finish less than a minute behind Ganna (+52’’). Joao Almeida (UAE Team Emirates) finishes just ahead of Vlasov (+50’’) but Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) is not as fast. The Danish winner of the Tour de France concedes 1’18’’.
Primoz Roglic (Jumbo-Visma) and Remco Evenepoel (Soudal Quick-Step) trade seconds until the Belgian sets the 2nd best time on the line (+16’’), 20 seconds head of his Slovenian rival. Sepp Kuss (Jumbo-Visma) takes the 13th best time and only loses 17’’ to Marc Soler (UAE Team Emirates). The American climber still leads the overall standings ahead of another GC battle on Wednesday.
