Red Bull - BORA - hansgrohe have confirmed their lineup for the Volta a Catalunya and it includes Primoz Roglic who will take on the single most important test ahead of his return to the Giro d'Italia. The Slovenian will be one of the favourites to win the overall classification, even if the lineup is not the strongest.
The German team is missing many names like Jai Hindley, Aleksandr Vlasov, Florian Lipowitz or Daniel Martínez, but is instead focusing on it's Giro block. Primoz Roglic is the uncontested leader for this week with his three summit finishes to tackle in the Catalunyan region, and he will be supported in the mountains mostly by Giulio Pellizzari whom the team is hoping to see show his best level and become a key domestique for the mountainous terrain.
The rest of the team, besides the rouleur Nico Denz, is made of puncheurs, riders who will fare better in the hilly terrain but can handle themselves in the mountains. Without a doubt, Jan Tratnik will be a key maan and likely Roglic's most valuable domestique, but the team also has Giovanni Aleotti, Frederik Wandahl and Alexander Hajek.

- "Mathieu has also cleaned up everything on the road in the past two years" This year he was given a fight by Pogi in MSR and PR. and he was defeated in Flanders. In other races he is not even close to winning. There was no cleanup.abstractengineer03-05-2025
- Surely people had more fun watching you and your old "coworkers" saving energy for 4-5 hours and attacking the last 500 meters. Uff.. very funny. Typical resentful "old" cyclists against an incredibly talented (and disruptive) young man.
maria2024202403-05-2025 - What's more pressure than trying to beat MVDP in a one-day sprinter's classic? It's like trying to win a grand tour stage in a bunch sprint.. They both put each other in the pressure cooker, but JV needs to win, in my opinion, more than TP. Throw in Primoz and Remco in the climber's mix, and its going to be an exciting TDF.FredMan03-05-2025

- Why would you expect cycling to be different than any other sport? World Tour riders pass tests in and out of competition, so the playing field is as level as can be found in any high level competition.
