Team Virtu has continued its recruitment for the 2018 season, announcing the signing of Katarzyna Pawlowska. The 28-year-old joins from Boels Dolmans on a one-year contract after four years with the Dutch squad.
A triple world champion on the track, Pawlowska hasn't raced since the Tour Cycliste Féminin International de l'Ardèche where she won the first two stages of the race. Along with her Polish time trial title, Pawlowska was also involved in Boels Dolmans' TTT win at the Healthy Ageing Tour earlier in the season.
"You can see lots of potential in the team. It's new, but it's already working well and I think it can get even better really fast. It's rare you can become part of a new team and help develop it and see how good it can be," Pawlowska said.

Also announced to be joining the team from 2018 is Barbara Guarischi, Emilie Moberg and Katrine Aalerud.
Along with the likes of Linda Villumsen, Pawlowska adds time trial power to the squad and is aiming to improve the team's strength against the clock.
"I hope we can go well together and create a strong team where we can show ourselves as a unit - ride together and win together," she said. "If we have a goal as a team, it's much easier to win races - and so I think we can do well in the team time trials."
