Experienced UAE Team Emirates line-up to face Milan-San Remo

After a recent victory by Tadej Pogačar at Tirreno-Adriatico, UAE will hope to continue their good form on Italian soil as they set their sights on the next target : Milan- San Remo.

 
The team line-up has a previous winner of the race in its ranks in Alexander Kristoff who conquered the 300km race, the longest race of the professional calendar, in 2014.

Taking charge of the team will be Team Manager Joxean Matxin Fernandez (Spa) alongside Sports Directors Marco Marzano (Ita) and Manuele Mori (Ita) who will lead a group of seven riders:

 
-Sven Erik Bystrom (Nor)
-Alessandro Covi (Ita)
-Davide Formolo (Ita)
-Fernando Gaviria (Col)
-Alexander Kristoff (Nor)
-Maximiliano Richeze (Arg)
-Matteo Trentin (Ita)

 
Alexander Kristoff: “It will be a hard race for sure. Like always you’ll have riders who will attack on the Cipressa and the Poggio and then the rest of us who want to arrive in a sprint. For us, we have options for both scenarios so we will see how the race develops and play our cards on the day.“
