Decathlon is joining the French team AG2R as a sponsor for the 2024 season. Vincent Lavenu's team will be racing under the name Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale in the coming season. The team has now unveiled its look for 2024, which will bring changes thanks to the new sponsor.

While the insurance company AG2R has been the name sponsor of the French team without interruption since 2000, the co-name sponsor has now changed: Citroen is no longer the name sponsor, but continues to provide the team vehicles. Instead, the French sporting goods manufacturer Decathlon can be seen on the jersey. The new namesake gives the jersey a new touch in the blue Decathlon style.

Compared to the previous year, a white section has been retained, but this has been greatly reduced. In addition, the diagonal lettering of the sponsors on the jersey has remained the same.

The shorts are kept in a simple black colour and are completed by a white inscription of the two namesakes of the team. The Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale team jersey and shorts are manufactured by French outfitter Rosti. >> available here

In 2023, the French team rode eye-catching blue racing bikes from the brand BMC. This will also change for the coming season. From then on, the Decathlon brand Van Rysel will be equipping the racing team. The bike matches the outfit. The black and blue elements of the bike frame can also be found on the jersey and trousers.
