Bennett signs with Q36.5

Sam Bennett is headed to Q36.5 for the 2026 season after spending the past two years with Decathlon-AG2R La Mondiale. The move will reunite the 35-year-old Irishman, who counts 10 Grand Tour stage wins and a Tour de France green jersey on his career palmares, with Q36.5 Head of Performance Kurt Bogaerts, who worked with a young Bennett at the An Post-Sean Kelly team.

"We remained in contact throughout his career and now we have the opportunity to add his winning experience to our team," Bogaerts said in a team statement. "He understands what it takes to win at the highest level and especially at Grand Tours. Sam gives us the chance to target high-profile victories and the consistency we strive for."
