EF EDUCATION- NIPPO
2020 World Ranking 10 Established 2005 Team Manager Jonathan Vaughters Bike Cannondale
Making headlines both on and off the road through their unique Giro kit, EF made their mark in 2020. They won stages at all three grand tours, while Hugh Carthy’s podium at the Vuelta proved the Briton could step into the shoes of Dani Martínez - who leaves for Ineos - as a grand tour contender. EF have lost the experience of Sep Vanmarcke, Michael Woods and Simon Clarke. But the arrival of Nippo as co-sponsors has seen four of their riders join the roster, with Japanese duo Fumiyuki Beppu and Hideto Nakane among them. Michael Valgren will catch the most attention, as the former Amstel Gold race winner will join Alberto Bettiol and Jens Keukeleire leading the charge in the classics.
