AISAN RACING TEAM 愛三工業レーシングチーム
（CT / Japan）
This is a UCI Continental team based in Aichi Prefecture, backed by the automotive parts system manufacturer "Aisan Industry Co., Ltd." Since 2006, the team has actively competed in races across the Asian Tour.
All the riders are Japanese, with sprinter Hayato Okamoto, who excels on both flat and hilly terrains, as the team’s top performer. This season, he has secured three victories, including Stage 3 of the Tour de Kumano. Forming a powerful duo with Okamoto and taking on the role of lead-out man is Keigo Kusaba, the 2021 All Japan Champion, who is also a formidable sprinter. Rival teams will be keen to prevent these two from having free rein in the final stages of the race. Speedsters like Shotaro Watanabe and Hayato Tobaru, who have experience in track racing, support the team. In terms of aiming for the overall classification, Masahiro Ishigami, who has experience racing in Europe, will be looking to improve on his 8th place overall finish in last year's race.
