Team Picnic PostNL coach Phil West: “San Sebastián marks the second part of the season, where riders come from Tour de France with form, competing against riders coming from a training block. This year’s edition of the race has a bit of a revised route in the opening 100 kilometres, so we will keep an eye on the break opportunities and if there is potential for riders to go far from there. We also have a group that has came from altitude and will look to get back into racing rhythm and test themselves on the climbs. Most importantly, good teamwork will be the base from which we approach the day, and allow us to get the most out of each other.”
