Pogacar, who was runner-up in last year's Giro dell'Emilia, has his eyes on these autumn Italian classics. "I really like the Italian autumn classics. I managed to finish perfectly the last two seasons with a victory in Il Lombardia. The motivation is there to repeat it again this year," commented the two-time Tour de France champion.

Pogacar's Italian season starts with the Giro dell'Emilia, a race characterized by its complicated circuit. The Slovenian will also be present at Tre Valli Varesine, a competition he won last year, three days after the Giro dell'Emilia. On this occasion, he will be accompanied by a luxury team, including Ayuso, Majka, Ulissi, Vine and Adam Yates. The only change compared to the Giro dell'Emilia is the inclusion of Davide Formolo in place of Grosschartner.
