It is the twenty-three-year-old sprinter from Vicenza, Lara Crestanello of Velo d'Astico, who is the final piece of the puzzle for the Isolmant - Premac - Vittoria team, the glorious Bergamo-based formation ready to experience another intense competitive season on the roads of professional cycling. The powerful sprinter born in Thiene on March 21, 2002, is ready to give her best especially in races that are not too demanding from an altimetric perspective, as demonstrated by the excellent results achieved at the end of crowded bunch sprints and in endurance track competitions. The likeable Veneto rider, multiple Italian national champion at European track championships since the junior category, imposed herself with absolute authority at the "San Gabriel Gold Race - Memorial Renzo Tonon" in Levada di Ponte di Piave (TV) during the 2024 season, while last year she raised her arms to the sky at the "Umag Classic Ladies", an international UCI 1.2 competition held on Croatian roads, at the "Velika nagrada Občine Piran", a Slovenian national race, at the "Trofeo Zambelli Dino", organized at the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza (MB), and for the second consecutive year at the "San Gabriel Gold Race - Memorial Renzo Tonon" in Levada di Ponte di Piave (TV).
"I am particularly proud to be part of this important team," said a beaming Lara Crestanello after signing her new contract, "I thank team manager Giovanni Fidanza for his confidence, hoping to repay it in the best possible way, with many excellent results. Without a doubt, I will give my all to honor this glorious jersey and all the sponsors, who with seriousness and commitment allow us to practice this fantastic sport."
