After his🐲 stunning victory in the U23 Giro d'Italia, Britain's Leo Hayter has signed his first professional contract, joining his older brother Ethan at Ineos 🍨Grenadiers. 

The 20-year-old joins Ineos Grenadiers as a stagiaire, or trainee, with immediate effect for the rest o🍸f this season, before officially turnღing professional in the WorldTour from the start of 2023. 

Hayter has signed a three-year contract with the British team, taking him through 2025. He is the first 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:new signing for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ineos Grenadiers.

"I’m super proud and excited to be joining the Ineos Gr♛enadiers this coming year, moving up to the highest level of the sport in a British team I’ve been inspired by since I started competing," Hayter said.

Leo Hayter rode for the Team DSM development squad in 2020 and 2021 won the U23 Liège-Bastogne-Liège last year before a dispute over when he could turn pro lead him to leave early and join 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Axeon Hagens Berman for 2022.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Hayter told Cyclingnews recently that he doesn't y💮et know what type of rider he'll become in the WorldTour, pointing out that he can do a bit of everything but doesn't have the fast finish of his brother. 

He won the U23 British time trial title in dominant fashion in June after winning the brutally mountainous queen s🌟tage of the U23 Giro, which would point to a future as a Grand Tour contender.

He was only a reserve rider for the 🔴Giro after struggling with illness in the first half of the season but ended up winning the queen stage by more than five minutes before sealing the overall title. 

There was alr🎃eady plenty of interest from WorldTour teams but the Giro victory put him in a luxurious position when it came to deciding his future. He had al﷽ready cultivated a strong relationship with Ineos Grenadiers.

"Having participated in some training camps with the team, I already feel r🍷eally at home here, and now can’t wait to get started," Hayte🐬r explained.

Hayterꦚ is Ineos' first signing for 2023 and continues their reꦰcent trend of investing in youth. 

Tom Pidcock, Ethan Hayter, Carlos Rodriguez, Luke Plapp, Ben Tulett, and Magnus Sheffield are all among the highly promising youngsters ﷽who've been added in the past couple of years. 

Leo Hayter is see🦂n as a key part of the team's future.

"We’ve increased our focus𓆉 over the last few years on identifying exciting young talent, and our commitment to developing them into world class bike racers," sai📖d deputy team principal, Rod Ellingworth.

"Leo is one of those highly talented young riders who’s already impressed with his performances at the un🎐der-23 Giro. I’m looking forward to him coming on board and seeing him evolve as a rider💫 over the next few years.”
