Yousif Mirza brings UAE Team Emirates' 16th win

UAE Team Emirates are currently the most winning team in professional road cycling this year. The traditional headliner - Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl Team - is up to 12 victories so far this season but UAE have gotten their 16th today in the UAE, by capturing the team's home national title with Yousif Mirza.

Mirza won the United Arab Emirate's road race national championship today. This comes as no surprise as Mirza has won the past nine editions of the national championships and will continue showing off the country's flag at World Tour level. He is by far the highest-level rider in the country and has also taken the national time-trial championships last week.

Although the team has gotten a win today it is not impossible that number 17 will come during the afternoon, as Tadej Pogacar is the overwhelming favourite to win Tirreno-Adriatico's queen stage, and also the big favourite to take the overall win tomorrow in San Benedetto del Tronto.
