Mitchelton-Scott is an Australian cycling team based in Victoria .
history
Since the beginning of August 2011, drivers have been signed for the team. The management of the operating company GreenEdge hoped to qualify for the status of one of the maximum 18 UCI ProTeams for the 2012 season by engaging top-class drivers and through their points account and thus have an automatic start right for the UCI WorldTour . The best-known team members were the young Australians Jack Bobridge , Cameron Meyer and Travis Meyer as well as the experienced Stuart O'Grady and Simon Gerrans , the Dutch Pieter Weening and Sebastian Langeveld as well as the multiple Africa champion and reigning continental champion in the individual time trial , Daniel Teklehaimanot from Eritrea , who with it becomes the first professional cyclist in his country. Later came u. a. the sprinters Robbie McEwen and Jens Mouris joined the team, while other drivers associated with the team, such as the tour specialist Richie Porte and Karsten Kroon, did not join the team .
Taking this squad into account, among other things, the team received the World Tour Team license as UCI ProTeam from the UCI on December 5, 2011.
The team was initially funded by the Australian businessman Gerry Ryan, who owns the American RV manufacturer Jayco . On May 1, 2012, the team announced that the Australian chemical company Orica would finance the team as the new main and name sponsor. It followed from 2018 to the wine producer Mitchelton , which belongs to the team owner Ryan. An immediate name sponsorship announced in June 2020 by the Spanish non-profit organization Manuela Fundación was canceled after a few days after disagreements about the further status of the team became apparent.
There is a cooperation with the Continental Team Jayco-AIS operated by the Australian Institute of Sport .
GreenEdge has also been running a women's cycling team as a joint project together with the Australian Institute of Sport since 2012, initially under the name GreenEdge-AIS .
The team became a member of the Mouvement Pour un Cyclisme Crédible (MPCC for short; German movement for credible cycling) in 2012 , but left the association at the beginning of the 2016 season and announced that it would increasingly work with "official organizations". The MPCC then declared the team's membership as well as other teams' membership for opportunistic reasons.
In the wake of the doping scandal surrounding Lance Armstrong , the team's sporting director Matthew White admitted to having doped during his time with the US Postal Service Team , whereupon Orica-GreenEdge separated from him and announced the introduction of an external doping control program.
The team won the Tour de France on July 2, 2013 in 25:56 minutes in the team time trial in Nice on the 25 km long course. With an average speed of 57.8 km / h, this stage is the fastest in tour history.
