German Continental Team NetApp-Endura have been invited to participate in Dutch spring classic Amstel Gold Race for the first time.
“We applied for the Amstel Gold Race this year quite deliberately. Our achievements last season convinced the organizers, so we got one of the coveted wildcards. We are grateful for their confidence and, as always, will do our best to make this an interesting race,” said Ralph Denk, Team Manager of Team Net-App-Endura.
Earlier this year Team Net-App-Endura secured wildcards for the Tirreno-Adriatico, Il Lombardia and the Critérium du Dauphiné races. The ambitions of the German team do not end here, though.
“With the Amstel Gold Race we were able to secure one of the three classics we wanted,” says Denk. “Participation at Liège-Bastogne-Liège or Flèche Wallone would be icing on the cake.”
The Team roster for the Amstel Gold Race is yet to be decided but German sprint ace Roger Kluge is likely to be one of the participants.
