Antonio Tiberi (born 24 June 2001) is an Italian road cyclist, who currently rides for UCI WorldTeam Team Bahrain Victorious.[3]

Career

[edit]

Tiberi won the men's junior time trial at the 2019 UCI Road World Championships, overcoming a crank failure before the first corner of the course which forced him to change bikes.[4]

He signed with Trek–Segafredo in September 2019.[5]

It was published on 28 February 2023 that Tiberi was fined €4,000 in San Marino for shooting and killing a cat with his air rifle in June 2022. His team Trek–Segafredo suspended Tiberi for 20 days, causing him to miss multiple races.[6] Two months later Trek–Segafredo announced they terminated Tiberi's contract and that he was free to sign with another team.[7]

He joined Team Bahrain Victorious on June 1, 2023.[8] He finished 18th at the 2023 Vuelta a España. He rode in the 2024 Giro d’Italia where he finished fifth overall.
