"It won't be an easy
Deutschland Tour, but we are going there with a strong team, made up of riders who are building up and getting better and better for this second part of the season. We are confident that we will show ourselves," said sports director Tom Steels. "The tough uphill finish and the stages with steep climbs will be very important for the final result, and James and Mauri will see how far they can get there, but our other riders will also get their chances," concluded Steels.
