Team Wiesenhof-Felt is looking to make itself into a team for the classics next season, featuring newcomers Steffen Wesemann and Stefan van Dijk, as well as veteran Steffen Radochla. After losing riders such as young German prodigy Gerald Ciolek and Marcel Sieberg to the ProTour, team manager Raphael Schweda said, "It didn't please us or the sponsors to be represented in the media as a team that was losing its best riders. With our new riders we are giving the team a new picture, but we don't want to lose sight of our work with the younger riders."
