Over recent years, Team SD Worx - Protime has been the dominant force in the women's World Tour peloton, taking wins in almost all of the big races, often in a one-two form. As Lidl-Trek continue strengthen their ranks however, their dominance may soon not be unrivalled.
The latest big arrival for Lidl-Trek comes in the form of former Tour de France Femmes stage winner, Emma Norsgaard from Movistar Team. “This team has always been a dream team for me, and I really had the feeling that they have confidence in me and believe so much in me," Norsgaard tells her new employers' official website.
"I am so proud to become part of one of the absolute best teams in the world. I already started dreaming about the upcoming season after my first meeting with Trek. I am really looking forward to become a better cyclist and make a plan to reach my dreams together with my new teammates," Norsgaard continues, clearly delighted with the transfer. "I am hoping to be the best version of myself and the best possible teammate.”
“Emma is a phenomenal talent with a wide range of skills. Our Team is well-known for its aggressive racing style, and I believe Emma will align perfectly with this. Her Tour de France stage win epitomized this attacking, never-say-die attitude," adds the Lidl-Trek General Manager, Luca Guercilena in the official announcement of the signing. "Even though Emma has been racing at the highest level for several years already, she is still a young rider. We believe she has the potential to become one of the top riders in the classics, and we’re excited to support her development over the next few years. She’s a rider who knows how to win in different scenarios, and we’re confident she’ll be a key asset to Lidl-Trek.”
