Dowsett stays with Movistar Team until 2017
Commonwealth Games champion Alex Dowsett has re-signed with the Movistar team after an excellent 2014 season including riding in the Yellow jersey at the Tour of Britain and that special gold medal in Glasgow’s Commonwealth Games TT.
After two remarkable seasons that included his debut stage win in a Grand Tour, the 2013 Giro d’Italia, and consistent performances both as a domestique and in his individual chances as a time trialist, Alex Dowsett has signed a new, three-year deal with the Movistar Team, staying until 2017 with Eusebio Unzué’s squad.
Dowsett claimed two victories in 2014: the TT in the Circuit de la Sarthe, which he led for one stage, and the Commonwealth Games time trial in Glasgow, where he beat two big specialists in Geraint Thomas (SKY) and Rohan Dennis (BMC).
His magnificent breakaway to take yellow in the Tour of Britain ten days ago earned him even bigger popularity among fans, which along with his team-mates expect him to move ever upwards in a career still far from its peak.
