Oier Lazkano and Iván García Cortina lead Movistar's high ambitions at Tour of Flanders
CyclingFriday, 29 March 2024 at 22:00
Movistar Team has unveiled its final '7' for the Tour of Flanders 2024, which will be led by Oier Lazkano and Iván García Cortina. The team is hopeful for the second monument of the season due to the absence of many of the favorites to win the race such as Wout van Aert, Tadej Pogacar or Jasper Stuyven.
Other men like Rémi Cavagna could also have something to say. Carlos Canal, Albert Torres, Johan Jacobs and Lorenzo Milesi round out the Spanish team in search of a result in Belgium, with ambitions higher than those of most years.
It must be said that the very hard ramps to be faced in the Ronde van Vlaanderen are perhaps less suited to Cortina's characteristics and that the Asturian could be Movistar's main bullet in Roubaix while this Sunday the baton should be carried by Oier Lazkano who gave very good impressions in Gent-Wevelgem and other classics, who will surely want to be a protagonist again.
MOVISTAR TEAM FOR TOUR DE FLANDERS 2024:
- Oier Lazkano
- Iván García Cortina
- Carlos Canal
- Albert Torres
- Johan Jacobs
- Rémi Cavagna

- I would let him go now, take any cash they can get, rebuild the classics team. Alpecin is failing apart a bit around MVDP. lots of guys are leaving and sponsors. I’d make a play for the biggest classics name on the block - including MVDP. Quick-Step could pay more than Alpecin, especially with Remco gone, and Specialized could pay much more than Canyon. And Remco will never be satisfied, or realize, his biggest problem is not the team. he isn’t that good of a climber.mij10-07-2025

- Pog 2025 is supposedly better than Pog 24 who was already better than Pog 23 and all previous Pogs, Evenepoel is still a youngster but looking at Pog at his age, I doubt you can say they’re not closely matched. Affini had wind assistance, no mention of KV?Mistermaumau10-07-2025
- One the one hand yes, on the other, TT is more of a measure of individual performance than positioning during hours of being pulled. In a tdf where each rider is alone all the way, it’d be interesting to see how the GC would look.Mistermaumau10-07-2025
