“I’m looking forward to going back to the Dauphine, it is the next step in my preparation for the Tour de France in July. There are not always a lot of opportunities for the sprinters here, like we saw last year, but it is a good race to prepare and get stronger," he tells the team's official website. "My form is slowly building, and it was nice to get the wins in Hungary and Veenendaal, and the goal is to keep that momentum at the Dauphine. It will not be easy, the stages are hard and we know the level of competition will be higher, but we have a strong team and the goal like always, is to win.”
Elsewhere, Chris Harper is Jayco AlUla's GC hope with the Australian making just his second appearance at the race. "We also have Chris Harper who will be our GC rider, he has shown what he is capable of in the mountains in the past, and I think a top-10 overall can be a realistic goal for him," confirms Sports Director, Tristan Hoffman.
Team Jayco AlUla for the Critérium du Dauphiné:
Dylan Groenewegen, Chris Harper, Lawson Craddock, Luke Durbridge, Rudy Porter, Elmar Reinders and Tsgabu Grmay.
