It's all change at Bahrain-Merida for 2020. There's a new name and co-sponsor – Bahrain-McLaren, a bright new red and orange kit, and a host of new riders for the 2020 season.

Fred Wright is among them. The 20-year-old Briton won a stage apiece at the Tour de L'Avenir and Giro d'Italia U23 in 2019, and also excelled on the track, becoming national and Under 23 European Madison champion.
