Filippo Baroncini has extended his contract with UAE Team Emirates – XRG until the end of 2027: the news just arrived directly from the Emirati team. The rider from Ravenna, who just yesterday left the Niguarda Hospital in Milan where he was hospitalized after the accident at the Tour de Pologne, stated: "The last month has been an extremely difficult period, but the support from the team, fans, and my family has been incredible and gives me great motivation.

And further: "Renewing my contract for another two years is something very special for me, and I thank the management for the confidence they have placed in me — I can't wait to repay the team's trust with great commitment and hope for more successes together with this family".

Just yesterday, we also reported the words of esteem from Team Principal Mauro Gianettì towards Baroncini: "This guy has not only a great engine, but a champion's mindset. Will he come back? Of course he'll come back, he'll definitely come back, he just needs to be patient. Now we just need patience".
