“It’s a privilege to continue with the team next season” 

At 28, Matteo Moschetti has proven his sprinting pedigree in our team’s colors, marking a historic moment by clinching the first victory in Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team’s history back in February 2023. Since then he’s added to win tally and built on that success with several top-10 and podium finishes. Although a serious training accident sidelined him for much of this season, his dedication to recovery has been commendable, and he is eager to return to competition.

“It’s a privilege to continue with the team next season,” Moschetti expressed. “I feel at home in this environment, and I’m excited to pursue my goals here. I was performing well before my accident and was knocking on the door of a victory  Unfortunately, my season took an unexpected turn, but I’m on the mend and can’t wait to get back to racing. My aim for next season is to hit the ground running, achieve some wins, and repay the support I’ve received during this difficult time.”

I’m focused on finishing this season strong and preparing during the winter to make next year a success.” 

Nicolò Parisini, our promising neo-pro, has secured a new two-year extension, committing to Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team through 2026. At just 24, he has made remarkable strides in his first two professional seasons, emerging as a solid classics contender. After claiming his first pro win in 2023, he’s hungry to build on that success.

“I’m really happy to stay with the team that gave me my chance to turn professional,” Parisini said. “I’ve grown a lot during my time here! Although I faced some bad luck during the classics this year, I can’t wait to return to Belgium Classics next season and show what I’m capable of. I’m focused on finishing this season strong and preparing during the winter to make next year a success. I believe 2025 will be a fundamental year in my cycling career.”

For Doug Ryder, General Manager of Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team, these three Italian riders are invaluable as the team continues to evolve.

“We’re thrilled to extend the contracts of these three talented Italian riders, each of whom has played a crucial role in our team over the past two seasons. Gianluca Brambilla has excelled as a road captain, consistently delivering top results and guiding our younger riders. Despite a challenging season after a mid-year crash, Matteo Moschetti, our standout sprinter, has a proven track record, and we’re confident he’ll return stronger and add more victories in Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team colours. Lastly, Nicolò Parisini has impressed with his solid performances in his first two years, including his first professional win last season, and we’re excited about his future. With Brambilla’s leadership, Moschetti’s sprinting prowess, and Parisini’s rising potential, we’re confident we’ve secured a strong foundation for continued success. Their experience and drive will be pivotal as we aim for even greater achievements in the seasons ahead.”

The extensions of Brambilla, Moschetti, and Parisini highlight Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team’s commitment to fostering talent and building a competitive squad for the future with a blend of seasoned leadership and emerging potential.
