The management of BORA – ARGON 18 and Björn Thurau have decided mutually to terminate the joint agreement on December 31, 2015. Björn Thurau signed for the German team this current season, coming from Team Europcar. In accordance with the regulations of the International Cycling Union UCI, Björn Thurau can switch to a new team for the 2016 season.
"Björn wants to ride for a team next season where he can make better use of his qualities. Björn is a passionate rider, who is known for his aggressive riding style. He couldn’t prove it very often in our team for tactical reasons this season. As we further focus on potential GC riders next year, he expects new impetus from a change as well as a race environment that is more suitable for him. I wish him and his new team many successful races," Ralph Denk, Team Manager of BORA – ARGON 18, said
"In a team it's like in real life: following an initial euphoria you notice that you have different ideas about the common path. That happens. I’d like to thank Ralph Denk for handling the separation straightforward, because now I’m free for my new team. My signing will be announced in the coming days," Thurau said.
