Team Corratec has changed its name to Team Corratec - Selle Italia just a few days before the start of their inaugural Giro d'Italia. Selle Italia, one of the best-known bicycle saddle brands, is joining Corratec as a new title sponsor of the Italian formation.
The Italian company, headquartered in Casella d'Asolo, was founded in 1897 and quickly became one of the most famous bicycle saddle brands. The company has already worked with champions such as Felice Gimondi, Eddy Merckx, Francesco Moser, Bernard Hinault, Mario Cipollini, Miguel Indurain, Marco Pantani, Paolo Bettini and Mathieu van der Poel in the past.
