Hirschi has seen a great season in 2020 with some stunning highlights, with a stage on the Tour de France and the Walloon Arrow. The exciting second place in Liège-Bastogne-Liège and the second place on the road to the World Championships (third) also reflects the wonderful season that young Hershey had experienced in 2020. In Switzerland, he was elected Cyclist of the Year.

But then suddenly a split followed between Hirschi and Team DSM (formerly Team Sunweb). The Swiss contract lasted for another year. Both sides indicate that they do not want to explain the separator.

Swiss newspaper Blick recently reported that Fabian Canselara’s neighbor in the United Arab Emirates is expecting an annual wage of € 1 million from the Emirati Emirati team. In Team DSM, Hirschi only had the usual minimum contract, which was set by the UCI.
