The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Movistar Team announced the contract extensions of Colombian 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Betancur and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Winner Anacona for two more seasons. The team has confirmed 24 of its riders for next year after adding Mikel Landa, Jaime🌞 Rosón, Eduardo 🐼Sepúlveda, Rafa Valls and neo-pro Jaime Castrillo.

Betancur, 27, showed his class at the Tour de France, finishing 18th overall while supporting Nairo Quintana, but suffered a season-ending 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:ankle fracture during the Vuelta a España.

Tipped as a future Grand Tour contender after his Paris-Nice victory in 2014, Betancur had a falling out with his then-AG2R La Mondiale team in 2015, ending his season after the Giro d'Italia. His first season with Movistar was sub-par, but his strong performance in the Tour de Frace helped him 𒉰recover his confidence.

"When I came to Movistar, it was to a team of winners, and I'm in cycling because I want to get back to winning. I want to return to winning, to winning a Paris-Nice, to be among the favourites for a Grand Tour and to enjoying the Ardennes. If I've done it, I think I have to get back to it because it's within me to do it," Betancur told 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Cyclingnews before the Vuelta.

Anacona is a training partner and domestique for Quintana and has been with the team since 2015. He supported Quintana in three Grand Tours, including🍷 this year's Giro d'Italia where he was second behind Tom Dumoulin.

Degenkolb aiming for 2018 after health scare

The Trek-Segafredo team announced on Monday that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:John Degenkolb is back to full health. The G🍸erman was hospitalised with breathing issues in September after abandoning the Tour of Denmark.

"John's condition was not improving enough after his DNF in de Tour of Denmark, so we decided he had to go to the hospital for additional tests for his respiratory issues. Fortunately, John quickly started to feel better and could leave the hospitওal after a few days," head team doctor Nino Daniele said. "He will start training again in two weeks, but of course we will follow-up on him during the coming months."

The 2015 Paris-Roubaix winner had a strong start to the season with a win in the Dubai Tour, but missed the winning moves in the C🌼lassics. His best finish 🔯in the Tour de France was second in the sprint in Bergerac. He dropped out of the Vuelta a Espana with bronchitis, and after being hospitalised, he decided to end his season.

"After I came out of the hospital, there was no time eno🀅ugh to get back into shape to still race this season, so we decided that I would take my break a bit earlier this year," Degenkolb said. "In two weeks, I will start training again and I am really looking forwa🀅rd to that. 2017 didn't exactly go like I wanted and expected, so I am ready for 2018. Bring it on!"
