Two top riders from LAMPRE-MERIDA will lead the blue-fuchsia-green team in the important appointment Vuelta al Pais Vasco, a World Tour race which is scheduled from the 4th to the 9th of April. Rui Costa and Diego Ulissi will spearhead the team.
Sports directors Marzano and Maini will rely also on a group of young talented riders with Valerio Conti, Louis Meintjes, Simone Petilli and Jan Polanc and on two experienced athletes Manuele Mori and Mario Costa.
After having taken part in the Milano-Sanremo, Ulissi spent a period of training at altitude on the Etna volcano together with two team mates who will be with him in Pais Vasco, Mori and Conti. The main goals for the Tuscan rider will be stage victories.
The other top rider of the blue-fuchsia-green team will be Rui Costa whose ambitions will cover both stage hunting and the top part of the overall classification.
The young talents Conti, Petilli and Polanc will have the task to join the breakaways.
Meintjes will evaluatehis condition day by day. He crashed during Volta a Catalunya and he abandoned the race so he'll need to base his ambitions on his form.
