When Adam Yates was asked what has changed for him, performance-wise, between his time at Ineos Grenadiers and UAE Team Emirates he takes about two milliseconds before answering: "Everything."
It's undeniable that the 32-year-old Grand Tour rider has moved into a new phase of his career at UAE Team Emirates. He is a key wing man for Tadej Pogačar but also claimed his first Tour de France podium in 2023 and in 204 he took six victories, his highest number for a single season. They included overall victory in the Tour de Suisse and a spectacular Vuelta a España stage from an ultra long-distance solo break through the mountains of Sierra Nevada.
