Cian Uijtdebroeks has announced that he's calling an end to his 2024 season, with no more races on the schedule this year for the Belgian racer.

The 21-year-old raced his first season with Visma-Lease A Bike this year following a controversial split with Bora-Hansgrohe, though illness has prevented him from hitting the heights that saw him finish in the top 10 on his Grand Tour debut at the 2023 Vuelta a España.
