Canadian rider Sarah van Dam will lead the Ceratizit Pro Cycling Team as captain. The 23-year-old has already proven her strong form this season. She finished fifth overall at the Tour of Britain and third at the Itzulia Women.
Dilyxine Miermont as an aspiring driver
Another promising rider in the Ceratizit Pro Cycling squad is the Frenchwoman Dilyxine Miermont. The 25-year-old athlete has already recorded a strong tenth place in the Itzulia Women this season. She could help her captain in the mountains, or take matters into her own hands and ensure a surprising stage win.
Elena Hartmann as a mountain specialist and stage hunter
Swiss rider Elena Hartmann joins the Ceratizit Pro Cycling Team as a proven time trial specialist. Her recent triumph at the Tour El Salvador 2025 further underlines her qualities on the mountain and her ability to win a second-class tour. Hartmann's strengths lie particularly in long, steep climbs, which makes her a valuable support for Van Dam in the mountain stages. At the same time, she has the potential to ride to stage wins herself, especially when the terrain becomes very demanding. The team is completed by the German rider Franziska Brauße.
