Allert out as CEO as Brailsford returns to Team Principal role at Netcompany-Ineos

Cyclingnews reports that John Allert is no longer CEO at Netcompany-Ineos, and that he in fact left the team "in early May." That marks the end of a tenure that lasted for about two and a half years as Allert took on the job at the end of 2023.

Meanwhile, the team reportedly confirmed that Dave Brailsford is officially Team Principal and Director of Sport, although their website still does not list him on its staff page. Brailsford helmed the team for more than a decade, running the show from its inception as Team Sky and through to its early years with Ineos as a main sponsor, until he took up a post in the wider Ineos Sport project to be part of the Manchester United leadership team. In 2025, Brailsford reportedly returned to overseeing the team now called Netcompany-Ineos, although since then the team has provided little in the way of official statements on its leadership structure.
