There will be a big collective focus in assisting Ewan. He isn't expected to complete the race, as he has not finished any of the four Giro d'Italia editions that he's began - however he has five stage wins to his name. His leadout will be heavy with German trio
Roger Kluge,
Rüdiger Selig and
Michael Schwarzmann set to guide him through the flat stages.
The team is then completed with stage hunters.
Thomas de Gendt will be ambitioning a return to the top step, which hasn't happened since the 2021 Vuelta a Catalunya, and
Harm Vanhoucke will be a climber to consider in the many mountain stages the Giro has to offer.
Sylvain Moniquet and
Matthew Holmes complete the lineup and will likely have similar ambitions, besides assisting Ewan.
Lotto Soudal for Giro d'Italia: Caleb Ewan, Roger Kluge, Rüdiger Selig, Michael Schwarzmann, Sylvain Moniquet, Thomas de Gendt, Harm Vanhoucke and Matthew Holmes.
