One of Norway’s biggest talents, Felix Orn-Kristoff won all three stages of the 2023 Nations’ Cup Hungary race, taking the overall first place and the white jersey for the best first-year junior.

The bronze medallist at the World Championships in Glasgow, who finished ninth at the European Championships, will continue with Intermarché-Wanty from 2025, in the continental team that year and then with the WorldTeam roster from the 2026 season. The parties have signed until the end of the 2027 season.

– I’ve been following the team for a long time, I remember in the 2022 season they were underdogs in the Spring Classics, which was incredible,” said Orn-Kristoff following the announcement. – Both my brother Alexander and Sven Erik Bystrom encouraged me to sign here because I would be in good hands. Wanty-ReUz-Technord could be the perfect stepping stone to the WorldTeam ranks, as I can’t jump straight into the deep end. With the help of the team, I might one day be able to realise my dream of winning the Paris-Roubaix.

As you know, Intermarché-Wanty also includes Estonian Madis Mihkels, who won two stages in Hungary in the 2021 Nations’ Cup race.
