CASTELLI RETURNS TO THE PODIO OF THE BEST COMPETITONS WITH EGAN BERNAL AND TEAM INEOS

The Team Ineos racer climbs to the top of the Paris podium getting two milestones, being the first Colombian winner of the most prestigious race and, in turn, the youngest runner to win the Tour de France since the yellow jersey exists.

The Tour de France 2019 ends with the victory of Egan Bernal, who becomes the first Colombian winner of the most prestigious race in the cycling universe. The youngest of the platoon, with 22 years, is the youngest runner to win the Tour de France since the yellow jersey exists. Winner of the Tour del Porvenir in 2017 and Paris Nice and Tour de Switzerland this season. Bernal is dedicated in front of his squire and last Tour champion, Geraint Thomas. While the British formation repeats a double already achieved in 2012 with Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome.

The highlight is age and being the first in your country to achieve it are two milestones, but also its impressive emergence in the elite of world cycling. His arrival has not been able to have a bigger door, since it is usual for young talents who come with strength first to try their luck in the Tour of Italy or in the Tour of Spain. But Bernal is a case of the most atypical. This Tour is your second participation in a great lap. Last year he debuted with Team Sky, current Team Ineos, as gregarious of Froome and ended up being so for Thomas, and this year, with the low of the first, he became the co-leader with the second.

Team Ineos had two tricks: the current champion and the man who is called to dominate cycling the next decade. And even more atypical is his case if we take into account that we are talking about a Colombian who not only knows how to climb, he also defends himself in the tests against the clock, the historic Achilles heel of his compatriots in this sport.

With the victory of Bernal, the Italian cycling brand, Castelli, also achieves the first great victory with the new colors of INEOS.
