Quick-Step Cycling Team has officially announced the squad that will take part in the 94th edition of the Giro d’Italia.
“We have a young, energetic team, eager to make their mark at the Giro,” says Sports Director Davide Bramati, who’ll be charged with the task of guiding the team from the flagship. “Historically we’ve always played offence in the Giro d’Italia, and this year we’re also going to try to animate the race when we can. The team is valid and qualified for any type of terrain. We have some good sprinters, riders who are good at attacking, like Jerome Pineau and athletes such as Cataldo and Seeldraeyers on whom we’re counting to make a leap in quality with respect to last year. Our lead-up to the Giro was good, the team is in good shape. Our aim is to attempt to win at least one stage and try to get one of our athletes into the top 10 of the overall standings.”
