Caja Rural will send most of their A team to the first Spanish stage race of the 2015 season, Vuelta a Andalucia. Eduard Prades, David Arroyo and Sergio Pardilla will focus on the overall standings while Francesco Lasca will try to win one of the bunch sprints.

Sergio Pardilla, David Arroyo, Eduard Prades, Amets Txurruka, Pello Bilbao, Javier Aramendia and Francesco Lasca will form the Caja Rural roster for the Vuelta a Andalucia which will be held from February 18-22.

The race will mark the debut for climbers Pardilla and Prades who have both joined the team in the off-season and they will target the GC in the five-day race alongside Arroyo. The former won a stage in the 2010 edition of the race and last year he finished 13th. Attackers Txurruka and Bilbao will look for stage wins in the hilly stages while Lasca will be the rider for the bunch sprints.

The race has two summit finishes and a time trial on the first day. It has attracted a star-studded line-up that includes the likes of Chris Froome, Alberto Contador and Nairo Quintana.
