Defending Champion: Almeida João

Almeida João signed a five-year contract with the UAE Team Emirates in August 2021, with the first year beginning in 2022. Soon after, Almeida João won three stages at the 2021 Tour de Luxembourg and the Tour de Pologne, earning him the youth rider’s classification and the points classification on the latter. Joo Pedro Gonçalves Almeida (Almeida João), a Portuguese cyclist who competes with UCI WorldTeam UAE Team Emirates, was born on August 5, 1998, in Caldas da Rainha.
