From next season, Cristina Tonetti will wear the jersey of St Michel - Preference Home - Auber93: the French team has officially announced the signing of the 24-year-old Brianza-born rider for 2027 and 2028.

Tonetti will therefore leave Laboral Kutxa - Fundación Euskadi at the end of the season, where she arrived two years ago and with whom she won the Grote Prijs Yvonne Reynders.

Stephan Gaudry, General Manager of St Michel - Preference Home - Auber93, stated:  "At 24 years old, Cristina already has great professional experience. She was looking for a new challenge and I am very happy to welcome her for the next two seasons. She has a very good sprint and often animates breakaways. In 2024 she wore the polka dot jersey at the Tour de France Femmes".

Cristina Tonetti, commenting on the imminent new chapter of her career, said: "I am truly happy and grateful to be able to join St Michel – Preference Home. I really like this project and, from my first contact with the team, I was impressed by the importance the team gives to people and the personal side. I felt the need for a change and I believe this is the perfect team to continue growing".

In the new team, Tonetti will also find Gaia Segato and Martina Fidanza.
