Preview about Dwars Door Vlaanderen, Tour of Flanders and Volta al Pays Vasco
After a nice week in Belgium and Spain, we’re getting ready for Dwars Door Vlaanderen, the Tour of Flandres and the Volta al Pays Vasco.
In Dwars Door Vlaanderen, Timo Roosen will make his comeback after a knee injury. Wout van Aert will skip this race, but he will start in ‘de Ronde’. George Bennett is the team’s leader in Volta al Pays Vasco.
Sports director Sierk Jan de Haan about the Volta al Pays Vasco: “The most important goal is to get a good result in the general classification with George. The time trial on the first day and the last two stages are really important. Besides that, the final of the second stage has multiple gravel roads. We have to keep George in front and make sure he’ll stay out of trouble.”
Sports director Grischa Niermann about Dwars Door Vlaanderen and the Tour of Flanders: “In Dwars Door Vlaanderen, Danny, Mike and Amund have a chance on a good result. Besides this, Timo will make his comeback. Wout won’t start, he’ll focus on the Tour of Flanders. He’s our priority in that race. We will build on what we have seen in the last races. We got a lot of moral out of the races of last week, Gent-Wevelgem in particular.”
