Filippo Colombo from BMC to Scott instead of Lars Forster?

Scott-SRAM cannot forever aim for Nino Schurter and it needs to be strengthened. Filippo Colombo could be the solution.

Scott-SRAM has been a team totally dependent on for years Nino Schurter: in the women's field Kate Courtney seemed to be able to bring many victories, after the 2018 world title, but she is not shining, even if we often find her in the top 10.

Even Lars Forster is not going through a period full of results (this year no Top 10 in the Cup) and his place seems to be wavering against Filippo Colombo, the 24-year-old Swiss who this year won 2 races in Short Track World Cup, including a podium in Mont Sainte Anne and the victory that slipped away at Snowshoe due to various falls, where he seemed to have the right leg to make the bang.

After Martin Vidaurre's voices are fading (seems to have signed for Specialized), this passage of Colombo could be an excellent shot of the cyclomarket. Lars Forster is out of contract this year so let's see if there will be a renewal or a replacement.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
