This week's episode of The Press Room I sit down with Jens Haugland who is the CEO and founder of one of the most hyped teams in recent years, UNO-X. The team burst onto everyone's radars in 2021 with a strong classics campaign which saw them earn wildcard entries into all the big races of 2022 for their aggressive style of racing. Jens completely opens the doors into the ever popular Scandinavian team, detailing his plans for all three UNO-X teams going forward whilst explaining the unique team culture which he says is a major driver in the team's success. Jens wants to change the game with how teams are presented to the fans and he gives us a real insight on how they plan to do it.

In this episode of The Press Room, I catch up with Ineos Grenadier and Australian Road Race Champion - Luke Plapp. We had a lot to cover since our first episode back in season 1 and so we began with the recent UAE Tour where Plappy was a force in the leadouts and showed his climbing potential finishing in the front group on both mountain stages including 5th on Jabel Hafeet. We also get Plapp’s opinion on the World's ITT course, his favourite Oakleys, his coffee obsession and he even shares some inside knowledge into the Australian Junior Worlds team traditions.
