Pete Kennaugh will work for Astana Qazaqstan in 2025 as a sports director, as the Kazakh team's British influx continues.

The 35-year-old former British national champion hung up his wheels in 2019 , after a career mostly spent at Team Sky. He went on to become team manager of Trinity Racing, a British Continental development squad, working with riders like Tom Gloag, Luke Lamperti and Bob Donaldson. Trinity have an uncertain future ahead of them, according to reports earlier this year.
