Overview

• Riders will wear monogram-branded kit for the remainder of the race, while the squad’s official name remains Israel–Premier Tech.
• Team officials said the change aligns with earlier moves to de-brand vehicles and casual clothing for security reasons.
• Stage 11 in Bilbao ended with times taken at three kilometres and no winner declared after police struggled to control protesters.
• Protest groups previously halted the team during the Figueres team time trial, and further interruptions were reported Friday and at Saturday’s neutralised start in Avilés.
• The Professional Cyclists’ Association urged stronger security as organisers pressed the team to consider withdrawal, which the team rejected while pledging to keep racing.
