Israel-Premier Tech will race the remaining eight stages of the Vuelta a España without 'Israel' on their jerseys, with the team opting to change their kit mid-way through the race due to 'safety concerns', though the team name will not be changed.

The ProTeam, registered in Israel, have been the subject of several pro-Palestine protests throughout the 2025 Vuelta, with their continued participation being opposed most recently by Spain's Foreign Minister on national radio due to Israel's ongoing armed conflict in Gaza.
