Career

[edit]

Lazkano turned professional in 2020 with Caja Rural–Seguros RGA, after riding with the team as a stagiaire the year prior.[4] In September, he took his first pro win on stage three of the Volta a Portugal. He entered his first Grand Tour the following year, Vuelta a España, where he was given the combativity award on stage five after spending most of the day in the breakaway.[5]

In 2022, Lazkano joined Movistar Team on a three year contract, and won a stage of the Tour de Wallonie.[6] In June 2023, he became the Spanish road race champion, after a successful spring season, winning the Boucles de la Mayenne and finishing second at the Dwars door Vlaanderen. In August, he won a stage of the Vuelta a Burgos.[7]

In February 2024, he soloed to a win at the Clásica Jaén Paraíso Interior one-day race, followed by placing third in Kuurne–Brussels–Kuurne two weeks later.[8]
