Cycling team season
The 2021 season for Team Bahrain Victorious was the fifth season in the team's existence, all of which have been as a UCI WorldTeam . After just one year, British car manufacturer McLaren withdrew from its co-title sponsorship, citing a desire to "focus on motorsport after the uncertainty caused ... by the coronavirus pandemic ."[ 1] [ 2] The team then took on the name of Victorious Stables, a horse racing stable owned by team owner Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa , with the adjective serving as "a constant reminder of [the team's] goal to achieve success at the highest level both on and off the bike."[ 3]
As of 10 June 2021.[ 4] [ 5]
