INEOS Grenadiers (United Kingdom) - Press Release: The INEOS Grenadiers are happy to announce that Omar Fraile will be joining the team on a two year contract from January 2022.

The Basque rider, like many of his Northern Spanish compatriots, is a climbing and breakaway specialist. His palmares includes five mountain classification jerseys, two of which he collected at consecutive editions of the Vuelta a España, in 2015 and 2016.

This season saw him raise his arms in victory at the Spanish national road race championships, a result which he admitted has helped relieve some anxiety – having not had a victory for a while. The 183km hilly course provided Fraile with the opportunity of a late attack only a few hundred metres from the finish line, and out-sprinting his competitors.
