In more than 20 years, LAMPRE-MERIDA has never raced so far north. From August 13-16, the blue-fuchsia-green riders will participate in the Arctic Race of Norway which will take place exclusively above the Arctic Circle.
Sports director Bruno Vicino will direct six riders from five different Nations (Belarus, Colombia, Ethiopia, Italy and Portugal): Niccolò Bonifazio, Davide Cimolai, Mario Costa, Tsgabu Grmay, Ilia Koshevoy and Josè Serpa Perez.
"The key moment for the overall classification will be the summit finish in the third stage: our trio of climbers Grmay, Koshevoy and Serpa will have the opportunity to be protagonists there and on the road we'll check who'll be the most competitive," sports director Vicino explained. "The course will offer one or two chances for the sprinters too and we'll be ready to exploit them thanks to Bonifazio and Cimolai. Mario Costa's role of helper will be of maximum importance."
