Lotto Dstny present young lineup for Vuelta a Espana including Lennert van Eetvelt, Andreas Kron and Thomas de Gendt
CyclingMonday, 21 August 2023 at 13:04
Lotto Dstny have received automatic wildcards for all Grand Tours and they have accepted to take on the Spanish race. A lineup without a big climber or sprinter, the team's focus will be completely in the breakaways.
Milan Menten should be eyeing a few sprints, however it must be said that his opportunities may only come on the hilly days as the bunch sprints will see superior competition. Jarrad Drizners will likely be there in support of him on the flat finales.
In the mountains Lennert van Eetvelt will be testing himself, the 22-year old is making his Grand Tour debut and there are big expectations on his shoulders for the future. Eduardo Sepulveda and Sylvain Moniquet will eye the mountains as well, whilst Thomas de Gendt and Andreas Kron will be big candidates to take victories on the hilly transtion days. Sébastien Grignard completes the lineup.
Lotto Dstny for Vuelta a Espana:
Thomas de Gendt, Jarrad Drizners, Sébastien Grignard, Andreas Kron, Milan Menten, Sylvain Moniquet, Eduardo Sepulveda and Lennert van Eetvelt.

- Yes, thank you Maria. He has a fractured skull but no pain or sequels and there should be no consequences after the small bump deflates. If anything, he is more likely to get something from the radiation he received when they “investigated” for abuse, CT scan, MRI, a dozen x-rays and he will have to have a follow up scan too. But as said, all due to childbirth, if we hadn’t noticed or worried and not taken him to emergencies, he’d have had no tests at all and instead of one to check the fracture wasn’t serious he got far more :-(Mistermaumau24-11-2024
- Obviously there is the question of enormous willpower but some injuries are extremely specific. A torn meniscus for example can function pretty well during cycling whilst making it close to impossible to go up or down stairs or walk normally.Mistermaumau24-11-2024
- First of all, I hope now all is ok with your baby!. Yeah, about to not accept foreign phone number is a big problem also for me. I have economic interests in 2 countries, I think that all can be ok with my Italian number... but NO! The world is globalized but not for bureaucracies.
maria2024202424-11-2024 - First of all, calm, this is a site to share point of views, doubts, intuitions about cycling. Let's think about it: if someone tells you that he is very tired but is going to run unimportant races immediately, ignoring a world championship much further away in time that would give him the opportunity to rest, there is something very contradictory. Maybe it is fair, but as a simple spectator I (and many others) do not understand it, it does not make sense.maria2024202424-11-2024
- I think the other side has said plenty, given comments about her reputation like what Renz said above. Perhaps this is her chance to speak up against that reputation? I have no idea but her comments seem pretty human, even if each person has their own version of the story.RidesHills24-11-2024
- Give her a team built around her with no competing leaders, like Pogacar has at UAE or Vingegaard has at Visma (seeing how Roglic left), and I wonder how Vollering would do. She’s already so good, and a team dedicated to her could make her even better.RidesHills24-11-2024
- Those injuries, an ability to manage pain and push himself, probably a load of TUEs to help him get back from an awful moment, and competing that hard without the long exercise base that was the norm - no wonder he was exhausted. We’ve now had two consecutive seasons of the second place rider having an injury that interrupts training, and it shows to what level their bodies are tuned for the insane task of winning the Tour. I certainly hope both (and their teams!) are healthy next year. It would be a first, after 4 years.RidesHills24-11-2024
- Winners seem to be like this. Win or lose, it is always on to the next thing. They don’t celebrate the big win, they don’t worry about the painful loss. They move on. It’s an amazing skill. But to be able to ride (and win) while not being able to walk? That’s a level of pain management that boggles my mind. Of course they have it, given what they put their bodies through, but it’s just crazy.RidesHills24-11-2024
- Poor Demi. But she behaves the same way when riding for the national team. Bring me my tiny violin.Renz24-11-2024
