Ostolaza successfully defended her Tour Féminin des Pyrénées crown in 2025 and finished second overall at both the Tour El Salvador and Vuelta a Andalucía. She stepped up again in 2026, winning Gran Premio Ciudad de Eibar, finishing fourth overall at La Vuelta Femenina and third at the Vuelta a Burgos Feminas before making her Tour de France Femmes debut.
