MTN-Qhubeka wins Tour de Langkawi overall

After taking over the leader’s jersey in Saturday’s queen stage, MTN-Qhubeka’s Youcef Reguigui held on to yellow today to take the overall victory in the 2015 Tour de Langkawi. Today’s final stage was all that stood in the way of MTN-Qhubeka p/b Samsung claiming its first general classification victory of the year. At just 96km in distance, the stage was a fast and furious affair with multiple attacks going off the front in the early stages. With 13 riders within a minute of Youcef’s leader’s jersey, Team MTN-Qhubeka p/b Samsung were on high alert and monitoring each and every attack carefully. Eventually 4 riders were allowed to go clear. Rafaa Chtioui (Skydive Dubai), Bruno Pires (Tinkoff-Saxo), Leonardo Duque (Colombia) and Jonothan Clarke (United Healthcare) were the escapees. Duque was the most dangerous rider at only 51″ behind Youcef. After Daniel Teklehaimanot and Merhawi Kudus had to abandon the race with illness yesterday, the remaining 4 MTN-Qhubeka p/b Samsung went to the head of the race to control affairs. The escape was held at a minute’s gap by our African team until the race hit the final finishing circuits where Team Astana and Orica-Greenedge then began to assist with the chase in ...

Tirreno Adriatico and Milan Sanremo wildcards for Team MTN-Qhubeka p/b Samsung

Today RCS Sport announced the wildcard recipients for their respective 2015 World Tour events. Team MTN-Qhubeka p/b Samsung are delighted that for the 3rd year running, they have been included in both the Tirreno Adriatico and Milan Sanremo events. We would like to thank RCS Sport for extending these invitations to our team. We don’t think anybody could forget our debut appearance at the 2013 Milan Sanremo. It was the race in which our African team was announced to the world as Gerald Ciolek triumphed, giving our team its biggest victory to date. Obviously this victory has a special place in our teams history and so we are delighted to be going back to “La classicissima di Primavera” this year where once again, we will contest for the victory. The Tirreno-Adriatico will be our first World Tour stage race of the 2015 season and as guests to the race we hope to put on a great show. We will look to better our stage podium placings we have received in previous years and be visible throughout the race. The Tirreno-Adriatico has treated our team well in preparing our riders for the classics and so we are grateful to have such ...
