2018 season

Viviani at the 2016 Rio Olympics omnium competition
Viviani signed for Quick-Step Floors team before the 2018 season, replacing Marcel Kittel who joined Team Katusha–Alpecin.[5] He got off to a good start winning Stage 3 of the Tour Down Under, the 50th victory since his professional debut in 2010. He continued the momentum in the middle east where he won his first major overall title and two stage wins at the Dubai Tour as well as a stage in the Abu Dhabi Tour. He returned to Europe for his first big objective of the season where he came 19th at Milan–San Remo. He added another success in Belgium at the Three Days of Bruges–De Panne but suffered an emotional defeat at Gent–Wevelgem, finishing in second place behind Peter Sagan.[6]
