Tudor Pro Cycling's 2026 ambitions soar with Küng, Alaphilippe, and Storer leading the charge. Despite not being part of the WorldTour, the team is poised for success, leveraging Swiss precision and Fabian Cancellara's vision. With strategic signings, including Stefan Küng and Luca Mozzato, and the retention of key riders like Julian Alaphilippe, Marc Hirschi, and Michael Storer, Tudor is set to make waves.
The team's Tour de France debut in 2025 was a promising start, with Storer targeting the General Classification at the Giro d'Italia and Alaphilippe aiming for the Ardennes classics and cobbled races. Küng will also make his mark in Tudor's iconic red and black at the Mallorca Challenge TTT.
While Alaphilippe faced challenges in his initial months with the team, his performance at the Grand Prix Cycliste de Québec in 2025 hinted at a resurgence. Matteo Trentin also found his form, securing the Paris-Tours title. Tudor's manager, reflecting on their newfound WorldTour status, expressed the comfort it brings, allowing them to choose their races and focus on growth.
The team's success in 2026 hinges on their ability to maintain this momentum, leveraging their strategic signings and the leadership of Küng, Alaphilippe, and Storer.
