Trek Factory Racing unveiled the full roster this week for the Trek-Segafredo women’s team, which will be directed by former professionals Ina-Yoko Teutenberg and Giorgia Bronzini.

The Trek-Segafredo women’s team is comprised of thirteen riders from ten nations and will make its racing debut on January 10 as the 2019 Santos Tour Down Under kicks off in Adelaide.

“We are all very excited about the start of the 2019 season,” said Ina-Yoko Teutenberg. “We will be racing with a solid group of riders who are sure to bring plenty of action. We certainly hope to go home with at least one win in the bag.”

Melbourne native Lauretta Hanson, who won the Tour de Feminin time trial last year, will make her debut with Trek-Segafredo on home soil.

“It’s really special for me to start my season in Australia,” said Hanson. “I’ve always enjoyed the racing and atmosphere that surrounds Tour Down Under, and it’s made even better as the first race with my Trek-Segafredo teammates.”

She’ll be joined at Santos Tour Down Under by Finnish sprinter Lotta Lepistö, Italians Elisa Longo Borghini and Letizia Paternoster, and Americans Tayler Wiles and Ruth Winder.
