For Elia Viviani, 2017 will be a new beginning. The Italian will leave the track behind him and focus exclusively on the road and has made some clear goals for his third year at Sky.
"On November 28, I will resume the training,” he told La Gazzetta dello Sport. “The next five weeks will be critical. It will especially be important to avoid illness or drawbacks because at that time you lay the foundations for the new year. It is a new year in which I want to improve on the road. I want to get back to being the Elia that you never saw in 2016. A goal is to be a protagonist in the Giro d’Italia and to fight for the red points jersey. The first stage could finish in sprint so the maglia rosa is a tempting thought . The other big goal is Milano-Sanremo: I will start to prepare now.
“For two seasons I will only focus on the road,” the Olympic champion in the Omnium added. “Next year I will not do the World Cups or the track World Championships."
