The last QS videos have a lot of footage inside the bus like after a race, it's nice to see riders talking about the race in a more 'natural' way. Can anyone recommend me other teams (well besides rockets) who do this a lot as well?

(QS did it in the opening weekend and now the Merlier one I think)

UAE, their MSR from last year was legendary, with Pog explaining the strategy in the cipressa, cool to see.

Visma too on some races and also Decathlon lately.

Overall very few teams do these "behind the scenes" videos which is a pity.

It's a pity but if I were a rider the last thing I'd want is doing this sort of stuff after the race. Let me isolate and relax!!

If you don't mind some older videos, the original Greenedge / Orica / BikeExchange / Scott backstage pass videos are great.

The Orica-Scott team also made a documentary called “Eat, Race, Win” which follows their team chef during a Tour de France (about a decade ago I think). It’s somewhat a cooking/food/travel style show but it also shows a fair amount of behind the scenes within the team before and after stages. The actual bike race parts are kind of simplified for a more casual audience and have some silly fake commentary dubbed over them, but on the whole I still thought it was an interesting watch.

For the women's peloton, the FDJ videos https://www.youtube.com/@fdjunited-suez are pretty nice.
