#GirodellEmilia reaction from @romainbardet 💬"It was a pretty big day out today to restart the racing for me after the Vuelta. The guys did a good job to bring me and Chris in a good way to the local circuit and from there it was down to the legs."
Romain Bardet headlines Team DSM-firmenich's selection for Il Lombardia
CyclingThursday, 05 October 2023 at 05:30
For the 8th time in his career, Romain Bardet will set off to Il Lombardia. The Frenchman has often done well on Italian roads, since he has already made 3 top 10s. This year, he will face particularly tough competition, but he hopes to shine in his last race of the season.
Within the dsm-firmenich Team, he will be supported by a solid selection. The youngsters Max Poole, Oscar Onley, Matthew Dinham and Kevin Vermaerke will be present, as will the more experienced Chris Hamilton and Florian Stork.
"It’s a magnificent but demanding course and we want to end the season in style with a good result," says Pim Ligthart, sporting director of the Dutch team. "Romain is our leader in Lombardy and we have a strong squad with experienced and younger guys to support him in the best possible way."
