Gianni Moscon (born 20 April 1994) is an Italian professional cyclist, currently riding for Team Sky.
Moscon grew up in the apple farms north of Trento in Trentino in the north of Italy. This led to him being given the nickname “Il Trattore,” which translates to “The Tractor.”
In September 2015, it was announced that he had signed a professional contract with Team Sky for the 2016 season. This followed a recommendation from Fausto Pinarello, of the company who manufacture the team's bicycles, who had seen Moscon winning amateur races and spoke about him to Sky sport director Dario Cioni.
Moscon recorded his first professional victory at the Arctic Race of Norway when he won the queen stage. He later went on to win the general classification, as well as the youth classification.
In 2017 during the Tour de Romandie, Gianni Moscon used racially abusive language towards FDJ's Kevin Reza.
