168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Vuelta a Espana organiser Unipublic 𝄹has secured a five-year deal with the Italian clothing manufacturer Santini to produce the classification jerseys from 2017.
The rac𝔍e's jerseys include the red of race leader, the green for the leader of the points race, the white ꦏand blue polka dot mountains classification jersey and the plain white of the combined points jersey.
"We are delighted with the sponsorship of La Vuelta, one of the leading men's road cycling races of the UCI World Tour. In mor♊e than 80 years of tradition, La Vuelta today is close to everyone's hearts. We share the same values and passion. It will be an exciting event for everyone, not only for pros but for all cyclists who train with passion and challenge themselves."
Santini will replace Le Coq Sportif, which has been the Grand Tour's jersey partner since the 2012 race.

Santini, full name Santini Maglifico Sportivo, was founded in 1965 by Pietro Santini who developed the brand while recovering from an accident that left him with a broken leg. The company also supplies the Giro d’Italia with their classification leader jerseys, as well as the kits for WorldTour team 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:LottoNL-Jumbo, although they will be 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:replaced by Shimano for 2017, and the ra🐻inbow and World Cup leader jersey's for 🃏the UCI.
