Carapaz reportedly targeting the Giro
As reported by AS, Richard Carapaz (EF Education-EasyPost) is planning to return to the Giro d'Italia this year in what will mark his fifth participation in the race he won back in 2019.
The 32-year-old Ecuadorian rode to third overall in 2025 after a hotly contested three weeks. He is set to take on Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) and João Almeida (UAE-Team Emirates XRG) in the GC battle at this year's race, where he is likely to be joined by Ben Healy. [AS]
