UAE Abu Dhabi / United Arab Emirates

The said team is but a rookie on the 2017 scene but their prospects look promising; new in the sense that they first entered the races as Lampre in the early nineties right through to the early 2000’s.

Other sponsors jumped in later, but they retained the Lampre brand until this sudden change in 2017; which is the name they will be riding under for the Giro d’ Italia this year. The Italian championship lineup includes Diego and Rui Costa current reigning world champ which is quite the resume so from any angle their chances look pleasant.
