"When I was young my idol was Chris Froome" - Giulio Pellizzari looks for breakthrough and Giro d'Italia debut in 2024

Green Project-Bardiani CSF-Faizané have got a new great talent in their hands. Giulio Pellizzari is only 19 years old but is one of the most promising climbers in the under-23 ranks. He's looking to perform in 2024 after showing off his stage-racing abilities at the Tour de l'Avenir.
“I feel like I have grown a lot and in the best possible way. I thank Reverberi for the trust they had in me, also because as a Junior I wasn't a phenomenon. They bet on me and I hope to continue to repay their trust in the coming years," Pellizzari told RadioCorsa. "When I was young my idol was Chris Froome. Now I'm looking at 2024 with the intention of doing more important races and trying to show off."
Just like Froome, it should be in the mountains and stage-races that the Italian can prove himself. He's proven himself throughout the year in several races and then at the Tour de l'Avenir he truly broke through, winning the final mountain stage and riding into second in the overall classification.
He stays with the ProTour team in hopes of paying back the confidence, and looks towards the Giro d'Italia and pro wins as an elite rider. "Being at the Giro d'Italia? It would be a dream, I have goosebumps even now thinking about it," he admits. "But there's still a long way to go. I still have to get back to work on the time trial. As a Junior I got by, but lately I've neglected it a bit. In 2024 I will return to work on it."
