Contrary to plans, Andy Schleck will not take part in the Tour du Haut Var-Matin this weekend.
Schleck feels healthy again after his infection of the respiratory tract, which forced him to abandon last week’s Tour Méditerranéen, but after consulting with the medical staff, the team management decided not to take any risk.
“We were happy to see Andy doing well in training the last few days,” explained Team Manager Luca Guercilena. “There is, however, a big difference between training and race situations. We want to prevent a relapse because of the race. Andy’s main goals are situated later in the season. It’s better that we are cautious now instead of taking steps backward.”
Andy Schleck is confident and leaves for Mallorca where he will continue his training build-up. Schleck is expected to resume competition in Italy in the Grand Premio Città di Camaiore.
