With the German rider absent from the team’s lineup for this weekend, 23-year-old
Kevin Vermaerke is set to lead the line for the team alongside
Patrick Bevin. They will be joined by Pavel Bittner, Romain Combaud, Alex Edmondson, Chris Hamitlon and Martijn Tusveld.
On the team chances this weekend, dsm-firmenich PostNL’s sports director Rudi Kemna said “we will race aggressively and look for our opportunities from the breakaway and through that we hope to bring ourselves in a good position for the final, where Kevin will be our card to play. He showed some good performances already this year and comes out of Tirreno in a good shape”.
