Wilco Kelderman (born 25 March 1991) is a Dutch professional road bicycle racer who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam Bora–Hansgrohe.[3]
Professional career[]
Born in Amersfoort, Kelderman finished in seventh position in the general classification of the 2014 Giro d'Italia.[4] He broke his collarbone in the ensuing off-season while training.[4] He was named in the start list for the 2015 Tour de France[5] and finished in ninth place in the opening individual time trial.[6] The following year he rode the Tour de France and placed 32nd overall.
Kelderman moved to Team Sunweb for the 2017 season.[7] He finished in the top ten of the Vuelta a España in three successive editions, between 2017 and 2019.[8][9] At the 2020 Giro d'Italia, held in October due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy, he held the overall lead after stages 18 and 19, but lost time to Tao Geoghegan Hart and Jai Hindley; as a result, he finished in third overall.[10]
Kelderman joined the Bora–Hansgrohe team in 2021 on a two-year contract.[11] He recorded top-five overall finishes at the Volta a Catalunya, the Critérium du Dauphiné and the Tour de France in his first season for the team.[12][13][14]
