The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ineos Grenadiers have signed one of the youngest riders in the history of the organisation, inking a contract with 💞16-year-old Benjamín Noval, the son of the former pro of the same nameཧ.

In the team's press relea🐭se, they call Noval "one of the sport's most exciting young riders and future stars" with "natural racing instincts, climbing strength, tactical intelligence and maturity".

Noval's s🍌on showed his promise in his first junior season this year, winning five one-day races and all three of the stage races he started, along with five stages between the Vuelta a la Montaña Central, GP F.W.R. Baron and Vuelta al Besaya Juniors.
Noval iﷺsꦜ also a keen cyclocross rider who was fourth in the World Championships in February.
"Benjamín has all the hallmarks of a rider who can develop into something very special," Performance D𒊎irector Scott Drawer said. "He's intelligent on the bike and driven off it, and he has already shown a real edge in c🦋ompetitive environments. We're excited to support his transition to the WorldTour and look forward to helping him fulfil his potential within our performance system."

"This is one of the best cycling teams in🎀 the world and I'm very happy to join its ranks so they can help me develop my qualities to their full extent. I want to thank the team for believing in me, and I hope to pay them back in the near future," Noval said.
