Simone Velasco is currently in his second season in Astana Qazaqstan and has showed his qualities on several occasions like when he became Italian road champion, but he also won a stage in the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana. His employer is very satisfied with his performances, which has now led to a contract extension.

"Coming in Astana, immediately I found here a great family atmosphere and my own place. I feel really good in this team. Astana Qazaqstan provided me a chance to make my step into the WorldTour, to ride the biggest races as the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France. I improved a lot as an athlete, as a rider and now I can look forward, aiming something bigger and more ambitious," Velasco says in press release.

"This season one of my dreams came true – I won the 'maglia tricolore' and this victory means a lot to me. I am ready to keep on working hard to become better and better, together with the team achieving new big results. I know, everything is possible."
