Team Visma | Lease a Bike Women has confirmed a two-year contract extension for Margaux Vigié, keeping the French rider in the yellow and black colours until the end of 2027. The 30-year-old, who joined the team in 2024, has quickly become an important part of their set-up.
Vigié spoke with enthusiasm about continuing her journey with the team. “We have fantastic equipment, a great team, an amazing staff and a science-based approach that really suits me,” she said. “I get plenty of opportunities to work for the team, but I also get the chance now and then to go for my own result. I really value that.”
Her first season with Visma began in frustrating fashion after injury, but she rebounded strongly and made notable progress. “I’ve made steps in so many areas: physically, technically, and tactically. I’ve become stronger in my role as a helper and I can read a race very well.”
Her coach Maarten van Kooij echoed that assessment, underlining the qualities she brings to the squad. “Margaux is a smart and reliable rider. She reads the race well, knows how to be in the right place at the right time, and is extremely valuable in positioning our leaders. She enjoys bringing her teammates to the front, but she can also achieve great results herself.”
Looking ahead, Vigié remains committed to supporting the team first and foremost. “Achieving great results together is the most important thing for me,” she explained. “I want to keep fulfilling my role as a helper and support my teammates when it really matters. In addition, I hope to occasionally go for my own result. That makes my work as a rider complete.”
