Grand Tours

As an UCI Professional Continental team IAM Cycling was not automatically granted the right to participate in any of the three Grand Tours. The team was considered by race organiser Amaury Sport Organisation for a Tour de France invitation, but ultimately was not invited.[23][24] They did not receive an invitation to the Giro d'Italia or the Vuelta a España either,[25][26] but were invited to Milan–San Remo and Il Lombardia by Giro race organizer RCS Sport instead.[26]
