Team Picnic PostNL coach Phil West: “Returning to Oman is always special, and we’re excited to start with the Muscat Classic. The race offers multiple opportunities, and in an ideal scenario, we aim to create a sprint with Pavel as our finisher. At the same time, we have strong options if the race becomes more selective, with Kevin and Warren ready to cover the climbing moves. With a well-balanced team, we’re prepared for different race scenarios.”
