WorldTour Teams 2026: A Preview of the Top Squads and Riders to Watch (2026)

Here's a thrilling look at the 18 top-tier teams in the men's WorldTour for 2026. With the racing season just around the corner, the excitement is palpable. The biggest teams have unveiled their jersey designs and season goals, setting the stage for a new balance of power in the men's peloton. Tadej Pogačar and his UAE Team Emirates-XRG squad dominated in 2025, but Visma-Lease a Bike, Lidl-Trek, Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, and Decathlon CMA CGM are stronger than ever. Could 2026 be a season of change? It will be fascinating to see if Pogačar can win Paris-Roubaix or a record-equaling fifth Tour de France, how Remco Evenepoel performs after his transfer to Red Bull, if Olav Kooij can become the best sprinter in the world with Decathlon, and if Juan Ayuso can finally show his talent after leaving UAE for Lidl-Trek. Alpecin-Premier Tech, Bahrain Victorious, Decathlon CMA CGM Team, EF Education-EasyPost, Groupama-FDJ United, Ineos Grenadiers, Lidl-Trek, Lotto Intermáché, Movistar, NSN Cycling Team, Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, Soudal-QuickStep, Team Jayco AlUla, Picnic PostNL, and Visma-Lease a Bike are also in the mix. Get ready for an action-packed season as these teams battle for supremacy on the world's biggest stages.
