Summary

Lanterne and Benji preview what to expect from Deceuninck-Quick-Step in 2021, including their new signings, riders out of contract (basically everyone) what their strengths and weaknesses are and who should be their leaders for the monuments and grand tours. Perhaps a season of change for DQS in 2021, with some warning in 2020 with Almeida in pink for 15 days, but on paper their classics squad does not look to be the strongest in the world whilst their Grand Tour potential is on the rise.

0:00.0	Welcome back to the Lantern Rouge cycling podcast with Benji Nice and today we're going to be
0:04.0	talking about the kernic quickstep for 2021. We'll review just like with the other season preview
0:10.4	podcasts for the teens. We'll review what they did in 2020 briefly. Maybe compare that to previous
0:16.6	seasons and then we'll look out their transfers in and out who's up for out of contract in 2021,
0:24.8	which spoiler alert is basically the whole team. This is the kernic quickstep way and then we're
0:31.2	going to decide what are the main priorities for them. What are the question marks over the team
0:36.6	and then Benji and I will give you our team lists for all of the monuments and all three of the
0:43.6	grand tours noting that this is an Olympic year which kind of fact things. How you going Benji?

1:25.3	Flanders in those conditions they'd say extreme extreme weather protocol it's 15 degrees too hot

1:37.3	quickstep I think correct me if I'm wrong they're renewed a lot of the guys from the already on
1:44.0	the team who are out of contract. I remember maybe it was like a month period where everyone
1:50.8	seemed to be out of contract or like 10 riders and the third they just dripped through is like yeah
1:55.2	he's renewed. He's renewed. He's renewed. Incoming is obviously Mark Cavendish he got his own
2:01.5	podcast about that. If you want to check out our thoughts on that signing in full we're not going
2:06.8	to rehash that too much here. Don't check out that podcast and Joseph Cherney from CCC has come
