  • Stage 13: "The mood is a bit somber – but no blame on Maxim van Gils"
    2026/07/17
    Breakaway riders, take note. On the long road to Belfort, many riders fancied their chances. The dominant Tadej Pogačar let them go, and so, at the end of Stage 14, the Swiss rider Mauro Schmid took the victory. Right there in the battle for the win: Maxim van Gils from Team Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe. In the end, he finished fourth. "The mood is a bit somber – but no blame on Maxim van Gils," says Ralph Denk, team manager of Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe. Meanwhile, Tom Pidcock, a prominent name, launched an attack on the overall standings podium. He moved up from eleventh to fourth place. "I never got nervous," Denk says about it. The Briton had simply lost too much time "involuntarily" in the general classification so far. In the background, the focus is on the development of the Raubling-based team's youth. The U19 and U23 categories have become a major priority, especially since Red Bull joined. Denk explains the philosophy behind it and how, in the best-case scenario, the team aims to produce the next Tour winner. On the fourteenth day of the Tour, things get really tough for the riders. Le Markstein Fellering is the name of the mountain finish after four incredibly brutal climbs. A challenge for Team Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe? "It will be a hard battle among the best riders. We want to be right up there with Remco and Florian," says Denk.

  • Stage 12: "The boys are feeling good – but now things are getting really serious"
    2026/07/16
    Last chance for the sprinters on the way to Chalon-sur-Saône. This is what team manager Ralph Denk predicted, and that is exactly how it played out. After a flat stage, Tim Merlier won for the third time already following a frantic finale that included a crash. "He is the strongest sprinter this year," Denk acknowledges without envy. For his team, it was a relatively quiet day. "The mood is good. The boys are feeling good… but there are still plenty of mountains to come, and that’s when things will get really serious," says the team boss. In the background, Denk talks about the sacrifices in cycling. Last year, for example, Jonas Vingegaard spoke of a potential retirement. Denk puts the challenges facing the pros into perspective and explains the biggest differences compared to earlier times. From Dole to Belfort, things are getting hillier. The riders face 2,400 meters of elevation gain and 205 kilometers, with a tough climb at the end. "There could be two races: one at the front for the breakaway, and one for the yellow jersey," says Denk. "For us, it's important that Remco and Florian get through safely."

  • Stage 11: Tour only in August? “I like Pogačar’s proposal”
    2026/07/15
    In the latest edition, Denk reflects on Stage 11 of the 2026 Tour de France. “The way the stage unfolded was exactly what I expected, but not the finale. The fact that the sprint teams only managed to organize themselves so late is, for me, a clear indication that everyone is already completely exhausted. Normally, that happens much earlier,” says the 52-year-old. At Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe, all riders reached the finish safely and without any issues. “The medical data also looks good, and all key indicators are in the green,” emphasizes the team manager. The feature story focuses on Tadej Pogačar’s proposal to revolutionize the racing calendar. Denk is clearly enthusiastic about the idea. “I think it’s great that such an icon is addressing this so openly. If the riders support it, a Tour de France in August is certainly conceivable. The Spring Classics have to stay, but everything else should be open for discussion.” The final part looks ahead to Stage 12, which will take place on Thursday. The riders will cover 180 kilometers between Magny-Cours and Chalon-sur-Saône. “The sprinters don’t have many opportunities left in this Tour. I think we’ll see another bunch sprint tomorrow,” Denk concludes. Photo: IMAGO / Photo News
