Richard Carapaz

Carapaz was born in El Carmelo, Tulcán Canton. Whilst at school, he was mentored by one of his teachers, former Olympic racing cyclist Juan Carlos Rosero, who started a cycling club at the school. The club has also produced a number of other professional riders, including Jhonatan Narváez and Jonathan Caicedo.{{cite web|url=https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/richard-carapaz-from-ecuador-to-grand-tour-winner/|title=Richard Carapaz: From Ecuador to Grand Tour winner|first=Alasdair|last=Fotheringham|author-link=Alasdair Fotheringham|website=cyclingnews.com|date=13 September 2020|access-date=6 October 2020}} Prior to taking up cycling, Carapaz competed for his school as a runner.{{cite web |url=https://www.rouleur.cc/blogs/the-rouleur-journal/richard-carapaz-interview-ecuador-extraordinary-world|title=The Extraordinary World of Richard Carapaz|newspaper=Rouleur|date=28 October 2020|access-date=2 November 2020}}

Carapaz won the Olympic road race, finishing over a minute clear of the rest of the field.
