The Brescian will play the role of ambassador and promoter

Sonny Colbrelli will remain within Team Bahrain Victorious . The winner of Paris-Roubaix 2021 , who retired in October following a cardiac arrest last March (which forced him to implant a subcutaneous defibrillator), will still be in the team's workforce with the role of ambassador and promoter: “The team Bahrain was born in 2017 and Sonny has been with us since the first year - said the General Manager of the Milan Erzen team to La Gazzetta dello Sport - He will stay with us at least until 2024 because we are sure he can still give a lot. We have never had any doubts about this. Colbrelli will above all be an ambassador, promoter of the team and of various sponsors, including Italian ones, that we have. Then, especially for the classics, he will be able to make his experience available [...] He has so much to teach and to pass on".

The rosea also reports that Colbrelli would be willing to create a youth team , while for the moment his passage to the flagship as sporting director is not foreseen. A role that, according to Erzen, would be suited to Sonny's characteristics: “As a racer he was good at making immediate decisions in a few seconds, a very important aspect even for those in the flagship. We will see".
