On Saturday, all eyes will be on the Strade Bianche. Who will follow in Matteo van der Poel’s footsteps on the Tuscan gravel roads? No need to miss a stage of the game on this page. Sporza broadcasts the classic Italian movie live.
Greg Van Avermaet (AG2R-Citroën) has already placed second on the Strade Bianche twice (in 2015 and 2017). Do not immediately think of winning. “My best chance came through here,” van Avermaet says.
“In the past there were a lot of classic riders in the beginning, but in recent years a lot of good climbers who also do well have also been involved in a day’s work. That doesn’t make it any easier for me.”
“I’m still a 75-77kg rider. You always have to carry that weight with you on those slopes. But that doesn’t change the fact that I still find it a very nice race. That’s why I come back every year to the Strade Bianche.”
The Strade Bianche is a race where the strongest rider wins and everyone always ends up in their place
