Aged 35, David de la Cruz is not thinking at all about withdrawing from the peloton and has thus taken the decision to extend his adventure with the Q36.5 Pro Cycling Teama team he has been playing for since this season. Crowned Spanish time trial champion last June, the Catalan quickly felt at home within the Swiss ProTeam. “I feel really comfortable in this team! I’m really happy with this structure and the equipment, it’s really nice to work with innovative brands like Q36.5 and Scott”declares the winner of a stage of the Tour of Spain in 2016.

“My main goal for 2025 is to be present at La Vuelta with this team”
Having been unable to take part in any Grand Tour this season – a first for him since… 2012! – David de la Cruz hopes to see his team selected next year for The Vueltaan event in which he took seventh place in the general classification three times (2016, 2020 and 2021). “My main goal for 2025 is to be present at La Vuelta with this team. I am a rider who loves the Grand Tours, and it has been difficult for me this season to miss them all. I really want to show that Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team deserves its place at a Grand Tour, and with several strong Spanish riders in the team (besides From the Cross, Xabier Mikel Azparren, Enekoitz Azparren And David Gonzalez are under contract for 2025, editor’s note)I would like to see us compete together in La Vuelta in 2025″concludes the man who will compete in the time trial of the World Championships.
