It seems everything is ready for Enric Mas to finally make his debut at the Giro d'Italia, after participating in seven Tour de France and as many Vuelta Españas in 9 years of his career.
According to information obtained by AS, the Spaniard has definitively been convinced to participate in the next Giro Rosa, and the official announcement is expected to come during the upcoming episode of 'El día menos pensado', the TV series that has been telling Movistar's stories since 2020, which will air on January 19th.
Decisive in allowing the 1995 Artà native to seriously consider and then include the Giro in his program was the arrival of Cian Uijtdebroeks in the team. By taking on the role of captain and general classification leader for the Tour, he has "freed up" the Spaniard from the French commitment, giving him the opportunity to shift to the Italian stage race.
For the first time since turning professional, Mas will rotate his season around the Giro-Vuelta combination, a not insignificant pairing for which the Iberian rider will first need to fully recover from the operation he underwent five months ago to resolve the thrombophlebitis in his left leg diagnosed last summer.
Once he has completely recovered and resumed training with vigor, Mas can evaluate with what ambitions and how to tackle the 2026 Giro, where he will face an absolutely top-tier group of rivals (Almeida, Landa, Storer, Gall, and Carapaz have already confirmed their presence) capable of making the fight for the Trofeo Senza Fine exciting and competitive.
