Velo: Red Bull Buys Majority Stake of Bora-Hansgrohe

I would far far rather have redbull sponsoring a team than UAE, Bahrain etc.

I have no love for those sponsors either.

Scroll up, I replied with new information to an old thread where that discussion already happened.

Who knows what’s a good sponsor. Without oil co’s where would we get tires?

Without questionable sponsors we wouldn’t have pro cycling at the level we do today for better or worse.

Everything? They are in my top five most damaging companies ever. Their founder being a nazi sympathizer is like the least problematic thing about them

I have no love for redbull, especially their founder or energy drinks in general but saying they are in the top 5 most damaging is quite a reach imo.

I mean, everyone is welcome to their own opinion. To me they are right there with Apple and Facebook for long term cultural and societal damage, which far outweighs mere physical acts.

I am upset because I really liked Bora’s kit this year. :pensive:
