After an eventful start to the Classics, BMC Racing Team will commence the Ardennes Classics at Brabantse Pijl this Wednesday, 13 April.
Sports Director Fabio Baldato said the team is going in without a designated leader.
“Brabantse Pijl is a race where anything can happen and we have a diverse line up of riders, all of whom are capable of getting a result. We’ll take any opportunity and see how things play out on the day.”
Defending champion Ben Hermans will line up again, supported by a young BMC Racing Team.
“I’m looking forward to returning to Brabantse Pijl with the number 1 on my back. It’s always a nice race with a spectacular final. I hope to have good legs on Wednesday and also going into the rest of the Ardennes.”
