Marathon–Tula is a Russian UCI track team founded in 2017.[1] After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the UCI said that Russian teams are forbidden from competing in international events.[2]

History

The project was created through the initiative of Alexey Dyumin, governor of the Tula region, and Alexander Vinokurov, president of the investment company Marathon Group, with the aim of supporting and developing Russian cycling.[3][1] The team's second sponsor since 2018 is VSMPO-AVISMA.[4]

The team's cyclists come from the Tula region as well as other regions of Russia. The team specializes in track disciplines, however its cyclists participate in road races as well[5]

Marathon–Tula became a UCI track team in 2018.[6][7] Marathon–Tula's cyclists have participated in the events of the UCI Track Cycling World Cup multiple times after having joined the team.

After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the UCI said that Russian and Belarusian teams are forbidden from competing in international events.[8]
