Jay Vine may only be a few months into his first season with UAE Team Emirates but already the Australian has extended his initial two-year contract through to the end of 2027, committing to five years with the squad.

"My wife Bre and I often talk about the next step in my career, and after joining UAE, the next logical step was to try and further secure my place in the peloton over the next few years; doing that with UAE is such a natural fit," said Vine. "I really think we can achieve some epic results over the next few years.”
