Isaac del Toro
Isaac del Toro Romero (born 27 November 2003) is a Mexican professional cyclist who rides for UCI WorldTeam UAE Team Emirates XRG. A climber and general classification contender, he has also achieved notable results in hilly one-day races.
He rose to international prominence after winning the Tour de l'Avenir in 2023, becoming the first Mexican rider to win the race. At the 2025 Giro d'Italia he finished second overall, winning stage 17 and the young rider classification. The following season he claimed his first UCI WorldTour general classification victories at the UAE Tour and Tirreno–Adriatico.
Del Toro was born in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico. He began cycling at a young age and initially competed across several disciplines, including mountain biking, cyclo-cross and road racing.
As a teenager he joined the Mexican development squad A.R. Monex Pro Cycling Team. He has cited Egan Bernal’s victory at the 2019 Tour de France as a major inspiration for pursuing a professional cycling career.
Although del Toro had shown strong performances during his amateur career, he had struggled to convert them into victories. During this period, UAE Team Emirates sports manager Joxean Fernández Matxín had been in contact with him and was helping him secure a developmental contract with Caja Rural–Seguros RGA so he could begin racing professionally in Europe.
Del Toro rose to international prominence in 2023 when he won the Tour de l'Avenir, widely regarded as the most important stage race for under-23 riders and a traditional showcase for future professional stars. His victory made him the first Mexican rider to win the race and established him as one of the most promising young climbers in the sport. In a later interview with GCN en Español, he said that he had viewed the race as his “last bullet” to prove himself.
After his victory at the Tour de l'Avenir, UAE Team Emirates decided that he was ready to move directly to the WorldTour rather than follow the original developmental path. In October 2023 the team announced that del Toro would join the squad on a three-year contract starting in 2024.
Del Toro made his professional debut in January 2024 at the Down Under Classic, finishing in the podium.
