Juan Sebastián Molano Benavides (born 11 April 1994) is a Colombian professional racing cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam UAE Team Emirates.[4]
Career[edit]
Molano was named in the startlist for the 2017 Vuelta a España.[5]
He started riding in the 2019 Giro d'Italia,[6] but he was suspended by his team following stage 3 after "seemingly unusual physiological results". The team refrained from commenting further until more tests were carried out. Molano did not start stage 4.[7] Molano was later cleared to resume racing at the Adriatica Ionica Race in late-July 2019 after further tests found he was "highly sensitive to altitude changes."[8]
In June 2022, Molano was disqualified from the Critérium du Dauphiné after he punched Hugo Page in the head.[9][10] In September of the same year, he won the final stage of the 2022 Vuelta a España ahead of his team-mate Pascal Ackermann, despite the expectation that Ackermann would be the final man in the team's lead-out train.[11]
Molano competed in the 2023 Vuelta a España. He took a win on Stage 12 of the race, finishing ahead of Kaden Groves.[12]
