Naar AHB: Kristoff + Santaromita
Naar SUN: Majka + Almeida
Decided to sell one of my team leaders, Rafał Majka to bring a more certain rider. Majka is a very good climber but he didn't bring results in GT which caused less amount of points. With growing competition in Bora he may reach a point when only stage wins in GTs are a possiblity.
Kristoff is more crtain and even with Gaviria coming, I'm sure he will ride for himself in every race he starts. His contract with UAE expires in 2019 so I expect him to show great form in spring.
I had to let go Almeida to make a deal. It's a pity as I think he will become a solid GC rider in few years. But meanwhile, I can find another, younger Almeida
Santaromita gives me back some money and maybe even some points, it was fine to accept him as an addition
