Although he didn’t finish the Critérium du Dauphiné, Santiago Buitrago retained the confidence of Bahrain Victorious and has been named team leader for the Tour de France. The 25-year-old Colombian, who placed tenth overall in his debut last year, will be aiming to improve on that performance.
“We start this 2025 Tour with lots of hopes, actually, to be honest, expectations. I’ve been training for this year’s Tour since the end in Nice last year. I wanted to prepare myself in the best way and be in the best condition,” Buitrago said in a team release.
