Cycling, Tiberi and his 2025: "All about the Giro d'Italia. And I dream of redemption at the World Championship"

Rome, 15 December 2024 - TheItaly of men's cycling clings to budding and still raw talents, the most ready of which seems Antonio Tiberi, who spoke about his 2025 to the microphones of the broadcast Rai 'Race Radio'.  

Tiberi's statements

  "My goal will be to improve further than in the past: so far I have always succeeded, discovering something more than my limits. The white jersey at Giro d'Italia gave me a lot: so far it was my best victory in cycling, because it was achieved in the race I had dreamed of running since I was a child. At my first participation I entered the top 5 and I took home the symbol dedicated to the best young rider: not bad for a debut". The impression is that the very ambitious Tiberi can grow even in one-day races. "In 2025 I want to emulate this year's pattern: the first part of the season will be all about Giro d'Italia, while the second will also have to be evaluated based on how things went in May. Surely, I want to get my revenge on World as it went this year: I went to Zurich maybe with too high expectations, but it was still useful as an experience". The intervention of the runner of the Bahrain Victorious it closes by thinking back to the world championship expedition, which for a change rewarded Tadej pogacar. "That's a race in itself: there are the National but there are no radios and honestly I was not used to it. It went like this, but I will definitely try to get to the best of my ability 2025 to make up for it."  

Paternoster stops

  Speaking of the future, next season risks starting off on an uphill slope. Letizia Paternoster, which on your profile Instagram showed (without filters) the harsh consequences of a fall that occurred during training in Spain. "I am very sorry to have to announce the interruption of my retirement after a fall on the downhill. Now I am going back to Italy to carry out further checks. In the meantime I will take some time to rest and try to return as soon as possible". These are the words of the Trentino, who is in force at Liv AlUla Jayco and so far in her career, between road and track, victim of several accidents that have slowed her career. Meanwhile, again from women's cycling, comes a historic piece of news: Fariba Hashimi is hired by Ceratizit WNT Pro Cycling, becoming the first Afghan cyclist to sign for a team World Tour. The class of 2003 thus crowns its great year in the best possible way, which also saw it be the standard-bearer of its country at the Paris 2024 Olympics and win the first race as a professional, that is the stage 5 of the Tour Cycliste Féminin International de l'Ardèchein France. Now this further step, which certainly will not scare an athlete who, to assert herself, had to overcome obstacles much greater than those simply linked to sport.
