UAE reveal lineup that will support Tadej Pogacar's Tour of Flanders goal

The UAE Team Emirates has made official the team with which they will try to win the Tour of Flanders next Sunday with their leader Tadej Pogacar.

Let's remember that last year he finished fourth after being the great entertainer of the race. He arrived escaped with Mathieu van der Poel in the final meters, but they began to watch each other and ended up chasing them from behind. The Dutchman ended up taking the sprint. Pogacar knows that he cannot go with Van Aert or van der Poel if he wants to win.
