#RIDE AS ONE

Throughout the 2024 season, Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS kept the memory of Gino Mäder alive. While the number of victories fell short of expectations at 13, the team did enjoy some successes. Antonio Tiberi finished the Giro d'Italia in 5th place overall and as winner of the young riders' classification. Phil Bauhaus and Santiago Buitrago each won a stage at Tirreno-Adriatico and Paris-Nice on the same day in March. With the departures of Yukiya Arashiro, Jasha Sütterlin and Wout Poels, Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS has lost some experienced riders for 2025. The most prominent new signing is talented French climber Lenny Martinez. Otherwise, the team is relying heavily on talent from its feeder teams CTF Victorious and Cannibal Victorious, based in Italy and Belgium respectively.

The team's look will remain the same after a complete makeover for 2024. White and pearl will be the main colours, with teal, navy and gold accents added to pay homage to Bahrain's history and royal family. In terms of equipment, Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS will continue to compete on MERIDA BIKES. Depending on the race, the riders can choose between the aero REACTO, the lightweight SCULTURA and the TT model TIME WARP, equipped with Shimano components, Vision wheels, FSA cockpit parts, Prologo saddles and bar tape, Continental tyres and Elite bottle cages and bottles. As last year, Alé Cycling will supply the bike clothing and Rudy Project will provide the eyewear and helmets.

We look forward to an exciting and successful 2025 season.
