With barely any rest after their participation in Paris-Nice, Tirreno-Adriatico and classics GP Nobili and Milan-San Remo [this Sunday], Movistar Team keeps tackling hard races into its 2013 calendar and will face no less than ten days of competition next week.

The seven-stage Volta a Catalunya, one of the four Spanish WorldTour races, from Monday and three Flemish classics in Belgium –Dwars door Vlaanderen, GP E3 Harelbeke and Gent-Wevelgem- on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, respectively all feature on the Movistar itinerary.
