Reflecting on her role within the team, Dronova is described as both a leader and a road captain who prioritises team spirit and collective effort. Known for sharing her experience with teammates, she remains a key figure for the Swiss outfit. Speaking about the extension, she expressed her enthusiasm for the upcoming season. โ2024 wasnโt the year I wanted it to be, but Iโve learnt from it. Iโm excited for the challenges ahead and the chance to aim high in the classics and Grand Tours. Together with the team, I know we can achieve great things.โ
After a couple of strong seasons prior to 2024, this yearโs results didnโt quite match expectations for the Russian rider.
