“The Giro will be my main goal. I’m really looking forward to this Grand Tour. We want to win stages as a team, but personally, I also hope to achieve a good ranking.

“However, I can race without pressure. I will have a free role, and I can see where I stand. Especially with someone like Tadej Pogacar present, it will be good to see how I measure up now. In the coming months, I can assess how we will reach that level.”

Was I shocked by the noise? No, I’m not afraid anymore. If Bora is happy with it too? You have to ask them that.”
