Biography

Lorenzo Milesi was born on 19 March 2002 in San Giovanni Bianco, in Lombardy, Italy. He is a time trial specialist who wants to be an all-rounder. He won the Italian junior time trial title in 2020 and took bronze in the junior time trial at the European Championships. After a season with Beltrami TSA–Tre Colli in 2021 he rode for the Development Team DSM in 2022, winning two stages of the Triptyque des Monts et Châteaux and stage 9 of the Tour de l’Avenir, a hilly final stage.

In 2023 he became under-23 world time trial champion in Stirling, Scotland, and he was fifth in the under-23 road race. That year he moved up to the WorldTeam of dsm-firmenich. At the Vuelta a España he and his team-mates won the opening team time trial in Barcelona, which gave him the red leader’s jersey at the age of 21.

He joined Movistar Team for 2024. His best results since then include second place at the Memorial Marco Pantani in 2024 and fifth in 2025, and fifth at the Coppa Agostoni in 2025.

In 2026 he rode Paris–Nice, the UAE Tour, Milan–San Remo, the cobbled classics and the Giro d’Italia, where Movistar named him as its Italian rider and time trial specialist. He finished the Giro 49th overall, with a fourth place on stage 5 to Potenza, fifth on stage 8 to Fermo and ninth in the stage 10 time trial to Massa. He later rode the Tour de Pologne, the Renewi Tour and the Italian autumn races. He is 1.80 m tall and weighs 70 kg.

On 10 August 2026 Soudal Quick-Step announced that he will join the team from 2027 on a three-year contract, so he leaves Movistar at the end of this season.
