Kris Boeckmans, Stig Broeckx, Gert Dockx, Adam Hansen, Greg Henderson, Boris Vallée, Tosh Van der Sande and Louis Vervaeke will be the Lotto Belisol riders on the last World Tour event : the Tour of Beijing. The Belgian sport director explains the selection and ambitions of his team :
"We go to China with a good and motivated team. Adam Hansen and Louis Vervaeke will battle for a top ten place in the overall classification. Kris Boeckmans is our sprinter, he will get the support of Greg Henderson and Boris Vallée. Stig Broeckx, Gert Dockx and Tosh Van der Sande can join a breakaway in one of the stages and work for the team." Mario Aerts explained in a press release.
"The stages of the Tour of Beijing aren't too long. The first two days there's a possibility for a sprint. We can race offensively by sending a rider in a breakaway. Tosh Van der Sande for example is in good shape and showed himself a few times the past races. I expect something of him. The third stage will be tougher and in the fourth stage the GC will be determined. The fifth stage, a criterium, is of course a big opportunity for the sprinters."
Lotto Belisol line-up : Kris Boeckmans, Stig Broeckx, Gert Dockx, Adam Hansen, Greg Henderson, Boris Vallée, Tosh Van der Sande and Louis Vervaeke.
