Joaquím Rodriguez will be leading the Katusha charge in Sunday’s Amstel Gold Race, the first of the Ardennes Classic which takes place around the province of Limburg in the Netherlands.
Last year, Oscar Freire played the role of protagonist for the Russian Team taking fourth position after being alone in the lead until the last 200 meters.
Following the controversy surrounding their WorldTour license the Katusha team has enjoyed a good spring with several wins, including the Gran Premio Miguel Indurain for Simon Spilak, the Volta Limburg Classic for Rudiger Selig and stage wins for Joaquím Rodriguez in the Tirreno-Adriatico and the Tour of Oman. On Sunday the team will be looking to add further success to their 2013 season.
The complete Katusha roster for Amstel Gold Race:
Giampaolo Caruso, Alexander Kolobnev, Alberto Losada, Daniel Moreno, Joaquím Rodriguez, Simon Spilak, Angel Vicioso, Eduard Vorganov.
