This Thursday, December 21, 2023, the official presentation of the Movistar Team took place ahead of the exciting 2024 season where the Spanish team hopes to make up for a very poor last year.
With the arrival of several important signings, Nairo Quintana stands out above all. The Colombian returns to the ranks of the Movistar Team in 2024 to lead alongside the Spanish Enric Mas. Both will share the team's aspirations in the three Grand Tours of the year. This has been confirmed by Movistar itself after announcing the jersey they will wear in the next campaign.
First of all, in the Giro d'Italia, Movistar will go for the general classification with the help of Nairo Quintana. The Colombian already knows what it is to win the Maglia Rosa, since he achieved it in 2014. Secondly, Enric Mas will face the heavy burden of being the leader in the Tour de France, where he will seek to make up for the abandonment he suffered this year. Lastly, the two riders will start together in the Vuelta a España, a statement of intent for a Movistar Team that knows that La Vuelta is its most important stage of each season.
Regarding the announcement that he will run both the Giro and the Vuelta in 2024, Nairo Quintana was sincere at the presentation press conference: "I have to be honest with you because I must meet again. The Giro is a race that I have done few times. times, but I like it too much, and the Vuelta is a competition that I know well because we are at home. It is a great responsibility to do well and we have to join forces with Enric Mas for this competition."
