In a team that can compete in multiple aspects, Tim Merlier, Julian Alaphilippe and Kasper Asgreen are likely to hold the ambitions of a successful race for the team. "Our main focus will be on Tim – who’s had an excellent start to the season and will rely on a strong lead-out – to go for a stage victory," Bramati says. "For the rest, we’ll just take it day by day and see how it goes.”
