Team Visma | Lease a Bike have made history by winning both Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico in the same season. They could do further history at the Volta a Catalunya but have to face a very strong UAE Team Emirates. Sepp Kuss however will be on the charge for the title.
Close to his home in Andorra, Kuss will be motivated to perform in Catalunya and in the three summit finishes, he will have good chances of being among the best. With no time-trial, the differences will be made uphill; and the Dutch team comes in with several cards to play. Cian Uijtdebroeks the most meaningful, searching for more strong results ahead of his Giro d'Italia debut.
The team features also Attila Valter who will look to show more strong performances after Gran Camiño and Tirreno-Adriatico where he supported Jonas Vingegaard. Tour Down Under breakthrough Bart Lemmen, Steven Kruijswijk, Robert Gesink and Loe van Belle conclude the lineup.
"We will be satisfied if one of our riders finishes on the podium. Cian is in good shape after finishing seventh at the Tirenno-Adriatico. The upcoming race will be another good test for the Giro d'Italia, where he will be one of our eye-catchers," team DS Marc Reef said of Uijtdebroeks.
Team Visma | Lease a Bike for Volta a Catalunya:
Sepp Kuss, Cian Uijtdebroeks, Bart Lemmen, Robert Gesink, Steven Kruijswijk, Loe van Belle and Attila Valter.

- “During a TT, I am basically blind”. That was his quote after crashing into the barriers in a TT. The problem isn’t the UCI, radios or air bags. The problem is the riders and their teams.JoeyB22-12-2024
- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
