And the expected first big racing of time cycling the weather came: the Italy turn. The Pink Corsa 2025 celebrates its 108th edition, with a complete, different and difficult tour of which the two -day Counterreloj and a last week of many mountains will be the key to race development before arriving in Rome.
A total of 23 teams, from eight runners each, will play the 108th edition of Italian turn. 18 ng pinakamataas na kategorya, UCI World Tour (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, Alpecin-Deceuninck, Arkéa-B & B Hotels, Bahrain-Victorius, Cofidis, Decathlon Ag2r La Mondiale Team, Ef Education-Easypost, Groupama-Fdj, Ineos Grenadiers, Intem Lidl-Trek, Movistar Team, Mabilis na hakbang, ang Team Jayco Alula, Picnic Postnl, Team Visma-lease to bike, UAE Team Emirates-XRG and XDS Astana Team), where five continental categories are added: VF Group-Bardiani CSF-Fizanè, Tudor Pro Cycling Team, Team Polti Visimalta, Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team and Israel-Promier Tech.
As for favorites, the ten runners that follow can be in all pools, though, as they say, a three -week cyclist career is very long and may happen.
1
Primoz Roglic, 35 years
Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe
He did not argue with his fourth turn of Italy, with the success of 2023 and the third place of 2019. Slovenian’s Italy was his second success in Corsa Rosa, where he had to add four success to return to Big Laps. It came to Italy’s event with only two disputed trials. First is the return to Algarve, of contact and where it ended on 9th, and the Volta cyclist in Catalunya, where he achieved his second victory after 2023
2
Juan Ayuso, 22 years old
UAE Team Emirates-XRG
A priori, Juan Ayuso could be Primoz Roglic’s leading rival. Go to Giro de Italia after an early high period, with stigma only by losing the Volta Cyclist leadership in Catalunya on the last race day for the Roglic benefit. In the past, he conquered the Tyrrhenian-Adriatic and won La Fauglia and Faun Drome Trophy Classics. Racing debuts and surrounded by a strong team
3
Mikel Landa, 35 years
SOURIAL SPEAKER STEP
Alavés goes to ‘his career’ in full form. Mikel, who seemed tied to renewed his team, Soudal, became third in Italian turn twice (2015 and 2022) and signed an early year of the year of great level. As Roglic, he played only two races and in two he finished the top ten: 7th at the Tyrrhenian-Adriatic and 4th at the Volta cyclist in Catalonia. Touring is in accordance with its characteristics and it can be its year
4
Wout Van Aert, 30 years old
Tea visma-lease on bike
Like Ayuso, Belgian will go to Aert’s debuts on tour of Italy. So far a total of 14 days has competed and success has been rejected several times. It remains to be seen what their benefits to a big three -week turn (the best global result is 19th in the 2021 France Tour). A priori, he led a team to feel properly wrapped, with alternatives for days until sprint, on the mountain and in hunting stages
5
Thomas Pidcock, 25 years
Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team
This is one of the great ones that doesn’t know the turn of Italy. His team, Q36.5, became one of the guests and the British should match this invitation with a good performance, but it remains to be seen if the leeds will teach the general OA in stages. It came to this first Italy with 24 days of leg competition, showing great performance: Victoria in general of the tour alula, 3rd at Andalusia Vuelta or 6th at Tyrrheno-Adriatic
6
Richard Carapaz, 31 years old
EDUCATION EFFORT EF – EASYPOST
Ecuadorian is one of the racing champions to play the 108th edition of Italian turn. It will be 4th in 2018, 1st in 2019 and 2nd in 2022, despite the EF Education Corridor, it has not been successful in terms of results in the early months of the season, where it competed a total of 22 days. His final appointment, the Volta Cyclist in Catalunya, ended the General’s 10th
7
Egan Bernal, 28 years old
Ineos grenadiers
The Colombian, winner of the 2021 Italian Giro Edition, arrived at the appointment with Corsa Rosa after the 7th of the Volta cyclist in Catalunya. After winning the route and Chrono of his country’s national championship, the Ineos Corridor suffered an ugly fall in the classic of Jaén, when everyone was talking about the fact that Bogotá seemed to recover his best version, which was very difficult to reach after a serious accident he suffered in 2023
8
Antonio Tiberi, 23 years old
Bahrain-Victorius
The turn did not see the success of an Italy cyclist from Vincenzo Nibali in 2016, and, who knows, Antonio Tiberi may follow this year. -5 in the edition of last year, where it was his career debut, with the quality he gave his legs, Frosinone favored him a very paid team, which for example features the presence of the Bilbao pello. 3rd in Tyrrheno-Adriatic, he could not end the last previous race where he took part, the Alps Tour
9
Derek Gee, 27 years old
Israel – Premier Tech
Canada could be one of the scope, one of the runners that could surprise the turn of this Italy. He argued his second turn after becoming 22th in 2023. It was 9th on the French tour last year and in the early months of the time he surrendered to a high level. He started winning O Gran Camiño, 4th at the Tyrrhenian-Adriatic and 3rd on the Alps Tour. The military in Israel-prremier tech may be helpful
10
Thymen arensman, 25 years
Ineos grenadiers
Ojito at the Dutch Corridor. The sixth in two previous editions, 2023 and 2024, have proven to be a great corridor for three races. It could be an alternative to ineos to Egan Bernal, a team whose season changed the chip and showed a honorable ‘aggressive’ on the road. It arrives in Corsa Rosa after 2nd on the tour of the previous Alps, ending 3 in Paris-Niza or 4th in Volta in the Valencian community
