The Tour de l'Avenir has been revealing Tour de France winners for six decades. In 2026, it changes its participation rules — and the Red Bull – BORA – hansgrohe Rookies are on the start line.

The team heads to the Vuelta with a versatile lineup and ambitions across the full spectrum of the race.

From 20 to 26 August, the Red Bull – BORA – hansgrohe Rookies will compete in the Tour de l’Avenir. Lorenzo Finn, the reigning U23 World Champion and Giro Next Gen winner, leads the line-up.

Strong teamwork in Hamburg: Red Bull – BORA – hansgrohe executes its Waseberg strategy to perfection and puts Laurence Pithie in position to sprint to third place.

At the Czech Tour, the U23 team faced a field of three WorldTeams and ten ProTeams. After four stages, Romet Pajur secured a podium finish and Max Bock finished sixth in the general classification.
