Felix Gall reinforces Lidl-Trek after being 'runner-up' at the Giro and third at the Vuelta

Record15 September 2026 at 13:47

Austrian Felix Gall will reinforce the Lidl-Trek team next season. The 26-year-old rider comes from the Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale Team, where he remained for five years.

Gall arrives at the American formation with an impressive record in the Grand Tours. This year he achieved second place at the Giro d'Italia, finishing just behind Tadej Pogacar, and finished the Vuelta a España in third place.

The sports director of Lidl-Trek, Luca Guercilena, highlighted the Austrian's ability to be at the highest level in three-week races. Gall also demonstrated quality in classics, having won the Classique des Alpes in 2022.

This signing represents an important investment by Lidl-Trek to strengthen their team for the upcoming seasons, seeking results of note in the main races of the world calendar.

Why this matters

Austrian cycling fans will follow Gall's performance in his new team, which represents a significant shift in the competitive balance of World Tour cycling. The move affects both teams' roster strength for upcoming Grand Tours.
