UAE Team Emirates gear up for Gent-Wevelgem, E3 and De Panne

The bulk of the Belgian Classics calendar gets underway this week with three World Tour appointments: Classic Brugge-De Panne (20 March) , E3 Saxo Bank Classic (22 March) and Gent-Wevelgem (24 March).

Sebastian Molano will look to make further strides in the flatter sprinter-friendly classics in De Panne and Gent-Wevelgem while the strong pairing of Tim Wellens and Nils Politt will join forces in E3 to lead the team.

With 13 wins already on the board this season the team will look to add further successes to this number.

The teams will be led by the Sports Director pairing of Fabio Baldato (Ita) and Marco Marcato (Ita).
