Having gained considerable success in the early months of its maiden season, Aqua Blue Sport was invited to the 2017 Vuelta a España.[7] Despite losing their team bus to an arson attack, the team continued at the Vuelta. On stage 17 of their first Grand Tour, Stefan Denifl earned the first Grand Tour stage win in the team's history, winning solo at the summit finish of Los Machucos.[8] In its first year, the team won its first individual stage, its first overall at a stage race, its first national champion, and its first stage at a Grand Tour. On August 27, 2018, the team announced that it would not be racing in 2019, citing difficulties in obtaining race invitations from race organizers and a failed merger with the Vérandas Willems–Crelan team.[9] Team roster{{Updated|5 January 2018.[10]}}{{Cycling squad start}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Shane Archbold|nat=NZL|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1989|2|2}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Adam Blythe|nat=GBR|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1989|10|1}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Matt Brammeier|nat=IRL|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1985|6|7}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Mark Christian|nat=GBR|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1990|11|20}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Stefan Denifl|nat=AUT|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1987|9|22}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Eddie Dunbar|nat=IRL|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1996|9|1}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Conor Dunne|nat=IRL|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1992|1|22}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Andrew Fenn|nat=GBR|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1990|7|1}}}}{{Cycling squad mid}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Aaron Gate|nat=NZL|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1990|11|26}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Lasse Norman Hansen|nat=DNK|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1992|2|11}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Peter Koning|nat=NED|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1990|12|3}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Michel Kreder|nat=NED|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1987|8|15}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Daniel Pearson|nat=GBR|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1994|2|26}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Casper Pedersen|nat=DEN|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1996|3|15}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Larry Warbasse|nat=USA|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1990|6|28}}}}{{Cycling squad rider|name=Calvin Watson|nat=AUS|birthdate={{birth date and age2|df=yes|2018|1|5|1993|1|6}}}}{{Cycling squad end}}Major wins
