UCI ProTeam
Corratec-Vini Fantini (formerly Corratec-Selle Italia) are an Italian team that were only founded in 2022, but stepped up to ProConti level after just their first season of racing.
Originally sponsored by German bike manufacturer Corratec, Italian saddle maker Selle Italia came on board in May 2023, providing additional support to what was already a financially well-backed team. However, Selle Italia's title sponsorship only lasted for a matter of months and the team returned to the Corratec name ahead of 2024, with Vini Fantini in tow at the end of January.
After an impressive debut season with 10 wins, the team scored four victories in 2023, with three at 2.Pro level, alongside making their Grand Tour debut at the Giro d'Italia.
The team have kept their distinctly Italian line-up this season but added some WorldTour talent to their roster. Corratec-Vini Fantini have signed sprinters Niccolò Bonifazio and Jakub Mareczko along with Vuelta a España stage winner Kristian Sbaragli and climber Mark Padun, in a bid to add experience and depth to their squad.
