Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl has announced its team for the Deutschland Tour. The team will be led by European Championship winner Fabio Jakobsen.
Jakobsen has been enjoying a successful season with twelve victories since the start of the year. James Knox and Mauri Vansevenant will take care of the mountain stages. Yves Lampaert will try his luck in ITT while Florian Sénéchal will be responsible for sprints, and Stan Van Tricht will support the team.
"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.
