As tradition dictates, on the first day of the new year, cyclists who have changed teams can now officially show what they will wear for the current season. In 2024 there were several cyclists who changed the structure, but three of the ones who raised the most rivers of ink with Colombian Nairo Quintana, Slovenian Primoz Roglic and Mikel Landa from Alava.
Nairo Quintana, after his time at Arkéa Samsic French team and after suspension for tramadol dictated by International Cycling Union after its alleged consumption in Tour de Franceis back to what could be considered his home, to the team Movistar teamwith whom he spent eight years and with whom he undoubtedly showed his best version, achieving important successes.
‘Ironman’ He was once again very well received in the Navarrese structure, where he would remove responsibility for the Balearic Islands Enric Mas and where they certainly feel well supported to face their goals with guarantees, which are none other than the Italy is spinning (where it was 1st in 2014 and 2nd in 2017) and the returnwhich he won in 2016.
Radical is the change of scenery provided by the Slovenian Primoz Roglic. The yellow has changed from new Visma-Bike by the green of Bora-hansgrohe, a strong group to be placed under Slovenian command and with which he would try to attack the throne of Tour de Franceafter dropping out the last two years and coming 2nd in 2020, his best result, after winning in 2023 Italy is spinning and achieve the triplet in Lap (2019, 2020, 2021).
There has been a lot of talk about what the future holds for the Alavés. Mikel Landathat at 34 years old, the same as Primoz Roglic, left the structure of Bahrain-Victorius and ended up in the structure of Soudal-Quick Stepwhere he would become one of the loyal Belgian squires Remco Evenepoel and where he will work under the orders of the always eccentric Patrick Levevere. A priori, Alavés will face double the Tour de France and Returna goal he already faces in 2023, with 5th place in the Spanish round and 19th in ‘Big Boucle’.
Landa, like Roglic, signed for their new formations until 2025.
A season where there are also many other sticker changes, such as starring Felipe Orts from Alicante with his new structure, Forts Teamwhere he debuted today the first day of 2024 in Sven Nys Cyclocross Grand Prix; where we have to be attentive to see how far the constant fight will go Magnus Cort Nielsen with the Uno-X Mobility Cyclingwhere we will have to carefully follow the evolution of the new continental category group, the Balearic Islands Arabay.
