Career
Up through the junior category, Draperi was one of the leading cyclists in his country, finishing second in the national road championship twice, as well as a two-time winner of the challenge "Oscar tuttoBICI". He began the U23 category with physical pain, and underwent a surgical operation to the vertebral column. Because of this problem, he had few results in this category.[3] However, he turned professional in 2016 with Southeast–Venezuela.[4]
