Gorka Izagirre

In August 2018 it was announced that the Izagirre brothers would join Astana in 2019.

Both brothers were signed by the Movistar Team for the 2014 season, with Jon leaving for Bahrain–Merida at the beginning of 2017.

Izagirre won the Prueba Villafranca de Ordizia for the third time in his career in 2014. His first top 10 in a World Tour stage race came in 2015, when he placed 9th in Paris–Nice. In 2017, Izagirre finished fourth overall at Paris–Nice and won stage 8 in the 100th edition of the Giro d'Italia.

Izagirre signed with the Bahrain–Merida team for the 2018 season. He started off the season with 7th overall at Tour Down Under, and then took 3rd place overall at the Tour of Oman. He was captain of the Bahrain–Merida team together with his brother Ion Izagirre at Paris–Nice. They attacked on the downhill on the last stage and the brothers looked to finish 1st and 2nd but they both crashed in a turn on the downhill section, meaning their bikes tangled together. They lost their advantage and Gorka finished 3rd overall. In late June, Izagirre finished 2nd in the Spanish National Time Trial Championships, and days later he won the Spanish National Road Race Championships. Going into the Tour de France, Izagirre was a domestique for team captain Vincenzo Nibali, however Nibali went out of the race on stage 13, meaning Izagirre had the chance to hunt stage wins. He managed to get into the breakaway on stage 16 and finished 2nd on the stage, 15 seconds down on stage winner Julian Alaphilippe.

Gorka Izagirre Insausti (born 7 October 1987) is a professional cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam Astana. He is the brother of fellow racing cyclist Ion Izagirre.
