As Swiss Cycling announced on Tuesday, Vitzthum succeeds Simon Meier, who is reducing his workload through further training.

Vitzthum started his career on mountain bike and broke through to the top five years ago when he switched to the track. In 2020 he won bronze with the foursome at the European Championships in Bulgaria, and a year later he even won the silver medal with the foursome on his home track in Grenchen. (SDA)
