There is still great uncertainty about what Joaquim Rodriguez will do in 2017. In recent weeks, there have been a lot of rumors about the future of the Catalan rider who signed a contract with  Bahrain - Merida which could see him extend his career for another year before moving into a management role. 

The final decision about the comeback has not been taken yet by the former Katusha, as he explains in an interview with Rueda Lenticular.

"I honestly still do not know what I'll do. The only requirement is that I have to be at 100% if I want to race. Of course I am very clear that I will not return if I cannot get back to the maximum of my level," he said.
