- It was a nice circuit, with a lot of wind in the final. But the first part was very hard due to the headwind, and it was hard to do a balanced race. In the end, we all did a solid ITT and we can look back on an interesting stage race where our guys for the Giro d’Italia prepared themselves to be ready for next week, - said Daniil Fominykh.
- With three top 10’s in the past week, we can say that our helpers for Miguel Angel Lopez in the Giro d’Italia are ready to perform. We showed ourselves in the breakaways as well, with the young Jonas Gregaard and Kazakh rider Nikita Stalnov in the past few days. It was a good week and these riders are ready for their next challenges this season, - said sports director Dmitri Sedoun.
