After a 2023 season practically blank due to his accident in the Paris-Roubaix, the plan for 2024 was clear: climb in the rankings and earn points to secure a spot in the Swiss Olympic team.

“It seems like I'm not one to take the easy path. This year has been quite positive, with several moments where I was so close to making it truly extraordinary. These setbacks fuel my determination and drive me to push even harder. I can't wait to see what the next season has in store for me.” said Filippo Colombo.
The end of the season brought him great joy as he managed to secure the title of Swiss XCO Champion 2024, perhaps the national title with the highest level on the planet, which served Colombo to face a 2025 convinced that he has everything necessary to stand out among the best XCO cyclists in the world.
