The 2026 Giro d’Italia prepares: the story of the Classics in a new documentary
The world of Italian cycling is already looking to the future with the approach of the 2026 edition of the Giro d’Italia. While awaiting the official start, attention shifts to the competitions that define the national cycling season, offering fans a unique perspective on the most iconic races in our country.
Crédit Agricole Italia, a historic partner of major cycling, has presented a new documentary project dedicated to the "Classics." This audiovisual work aims to recount the effort, strategy, and passion hidden behind one-day races, events that represent a fundamental pillar of Italian sports culture.
The documentary accompanies the viewer along the roads that have made the history of this sport, showing the preparation work of the champions and the deep bond between the competitions and the territory. Through spectacular footage and exclusive interviews, the project highlights not only the athletic aspect but also the cultural impact that cycling exerts on local communities.
The initiative is part of the lead-up to the 2026 Giro d’Italia, confirming the banking institution's commitment to supporting sport as a vehicle for positive values. The story of the Classics thus becomes a way to celebrate Italian cycling traditions and to keep the focus on a discipline that unites millions of fans across the peninsula.
With this project, the organizers hope to engage an increasingly wider audience, bringing even the youngest closer to the world of cycling. The documentary will be available in the coming months, offering an exciting preview ahead of the great challenges that await cyclists on Italian roads in 2026.
