SD Worx - Protime manager Danny Stam has confirmed that Lotte Kopecky will ride the Giro d’Italia Donne ahead of the Paris Olympics but her participation at the Tour de France Femmes is yet to be decided after Liege-Bastogne-Liege, where she is set to support her teammate Demi Vollering, despite the latter leaving the team in 2025.   
"Lotte will ride the Giro. An ideal race to score and improve stage wins yourself," Stam confirmed the World champion's start at the Italian race to Het Laatste Nieuws.
"There is no long list for the Tour yet because certain riders are injured and it is not yet clear whether they will be fit. After Liege, I will sit down with Lotte and talk about the Tour. The most important thing is what she wants."
"Demi is our leader in the Ardennes. We hope to win at least one victory with her," Stam said. "From now on, Demi is the leading lady and Lotte is a shadow leading lady. An important role. I still expect something from Lotte."
