Zingle is only in his third professional season but has already made a name for himself during this time. He has shown his prowess in the French circuit with several victories and has also achieved notable placings in the spring classics. 

“Axel is a great talent for the classics,” says sports director Grischa Niermann, who will be a part of the sports management of Team Visma | Lease a Bike starting next season. “Moreover, he has a good sprint that particularly shines at the end of tough races. This has earned him numerous podium finishes. We believe he still has room to grow, and we are delighted that he dares to take on this adventure with us.” 

“For me, it is truly a dream to join Team Visma | Lease a Bike,” Zingle adds. “In my opinion, this is the best cycling team in the world. It has always been my goal to join such a strong team to become better myself. I am very motivated to join the team next season and hope to contribute in the classics. I expect to learn a lot from the best riders in the world and the rest of the team to become the best version of myself.”
