List of teams and cyclists in the 2025 Vuelta a España

The following is a list of teams and cyclists who will participate in the 2025 Vuelta a España.

Twenty-three teams will take part in the race. All 18 UCI WorldTeams were automatically invited. They will be joined by five UCI ProTeams: the two highest ranked UCI ProTeams in 2024 (Lotto and Israel–Premier Tech), along with three teams selected by Unipublic, the organisers of the Tour.^[1][2]

Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) rules allow twenty two teams to enter a Grand Tour – eighteen UCI WorldTeams, the two highest ranked UCI ProTeams from the previous season and two teams invited by the organisers. Grand Tour race organisers ASO and RCS Sport asked the UCI to allow an additional wildcard team to be invited to Grand Tour events, after lobbying from smaller teams competing for the wildcard slots.^[3] Larger teams were reported to not support the request.^[4] In March 2025, the UCI announced that twenty three teams would be permitted in 2025, allowing an additional team to be invited.^[5]
