The VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizanè clinches the team classification at the Tour of Slovenia, repeating the success of last year.

This result was made possible by the overall placements of Matteo Scalco, 9th in today’s stage and 11th in the general classification, Alex Tolio, who finishes the race in the Top 10 (10th place), and Luca Paletti, 18th overall. Even in the final stage, the team showcased great cohesion and consistency, placing three riders in the lead group and remaining active during the decisive moments of the race.

Team Director Alessandro Donati commented:
“Winning the team classification at the Tour of Slovenia is an excellent result. The performances of Scalco, Tolio, and Paletti confirm the strength and progress of our group—especially our young riders, who are responding very well to the expectations placed on their development.”

Alex Tolio, 10th in the final GC, added:
“I managed to hold on to my position in the Top 10 of the general classification in what has been a very intense Tour of Slovenia. I’m really satisfied with my performance today, especially considering yesterday’s fatigue and the overall pace of the race. We kept a strong rhythm throughout, and being awarded as the best team was the perfect way to cap it off—a result built on unity and collective effort in every stage.”
