UCI ProTeam

Green Project-Bardiani CSF-Faizanè

This long-running Italian ProConti outfit has been run by the same director that they first started out with back in 1982, Bruno Reverberi, an elder statesman of the sport who has overseen many iterations of his team over the years. In recent years, it’s Reverberi’s son who has taken over more of the day-to-day running of the team. One recurring theme of the team’s history has been doping positives, the most recent being that of Stefano Pirazzi’s and Nicola Ruffoni’s positive tests on the eve of the 2017 Giro d’Italia, and another for Michael Bresciani later that year. 2020 appeared to be the year that the team finally tried to put a stop to this issue, letting a lot of their older riders go and recruiting a large crop of young and prosperous Italian talent to replace them.

Their 2023 roster is almost entirely Italian, but they have three international riders: Spanish sprinter Iker Bonillo, young American Jared Scott, and African continental champion Henok Mulubrhan, who is one of their strongest riders. Among their Italian contingent, Filippo Fiorelli, Davide Gaburro and Alessandro Tonelli will be the names to look out for this season.
