Davide De Cassan

Pro team

Davide De Cassan, who turned 23 already on January 4, was born in Riva del Garda, not far from the Bais brothers. Like them and other riders on the Team Polti VisitMalta roster, he came through the ranks of Cycling Team Friuli. His results and performances during three years in the Continental side from northeastern Italy convinced Ivan Basso and the Contador brothers to sign him last year. As a neo-pro, he quickly showcased his ability to pull for his teammates, even on climbs, and to seek breakaways, while not shying away from personal opportunities when they arise. This was evident in his second-place finish during a reduced sprint in Taiwan in the spring. “When I was a child I used to watch cycling on TV, and there were Basso and Contador putting on a show — imagine what it means to me to wear the jersey of the team founded by them! The experience in a ProTeam has shown me how different everything is compared to being an U23: the race is controlled in a way that feels like playing on a PlayStation, and when the pace picks up… it’s incredibly fast!”
