Adam Yates takes UAE Team's 94th win of 2025
Three weeks ago, UAE Team Emirates-XRG broke the record for the number of wins in one season, setting a new benchmark of 86. Since then, their dominance has taken on a new sheen as the question becomes: how high can they raise the ceiling? Even, could they reach 100?
Since then, they've kept winning, thanks to Brandon McNulty, Isaac Del Toro, Adam Yates and, of course, Tadej Pogačar. After the Slovenian took the team's 93rd win at Il Lombardia where Pogačar ended his season, Yates took up the gauntlet at Sunday's 1.1-ranked Trofeo Tessile & Moda-Valdenga Oropa, a curious Italian one-day that comprises four laps of a 37-kilometre circuit, before leaving the plains behind and climbing up to the Oropa summit finish (6.7 km at 7.9%) of Giro d'Italia fame. Tudor's Mathys Rondel finished second, with UAE's Jay Vine third, the Australian a last-minute replacement for a weary Del Toro.
The team has another nine opportunities to add to their tally, including at the six-day Tour of Guangxi (14-19 October), before the season wraps up with the Giro del Veneto and Veneto Classic.
