Iván Sosa and Einer Rubio lead Movistar's hunt for victory at Vuelta a Asturias

Movistar Team has announced the team with which it will try to defend the title it won in 2022 in the Vuelta a Asturias with Iván Sosa. The Colombian will once again be part of the team this time and will co-lead the team with his compatriot Einer Rubio, who is preparing for the Giro d'Italia.

Sosa won last year's race in Asturias after beating Italian Lorenzo Fortunato and Frenchman Nicolas Edet in the overall. Antonio Pedrero, who also repeats on this occasion, was fifth last year.

Egan Bernal tired of comparisons with Tadej Pogacar: "I have already won the race for life, if that means being 30th in the Tour, I would be happy"

In addition to the aforementioned leaders, Movistar arrives in Asuturias with the likes of Lluís Mas, Vinicius Rangel, Abner González and Juri Hollman. This is a second category race, but it will be important for Einer Rubio in his final preparation for the Giro.
