Cofidis with sprinters for La Vuelta a España; Portuguese André Carvalho present.

A equipe Cofidis anunciou sua seleção para a Vuelta a España quatro dias antes do início da competição. Bryan Coquard será o principal nome para as chegadas em sprint, e a equipe também contará com membros especializados em fugas e vitórias de etapa.

Coquard já disputou o Tour de France nesta temporada, mas isso não impede que o francês também dispute a Vuelta a España. O velocista de 31 anos está em uma boa temporada, com sua primeira vitória no nível WorldTour (no Tour Down Under) e duas vitórias no Région Pays de la Loire Tour.

In stages that won’t end in sprints, the main highlight is Jesús Herrada. The 33-year-old Spanish cyclist won a stage at home in 2019 and 2022 and also wore the leader’s jersey for a few days in the 2018 Vuelta.

François Bidard, André Carvalho, Davide Cimolai, José Herrada, Ruben Fernandez, and Rémy Rochas will also be traveling to Barcelona. “The main objective? Winning stages,” former cyclist and sports director Bingen Fernandez looks ahead. “We have good cards to play in the hilly and mountain stages. In the sprints, Bryan Coquard can try his luck, with Davide Cimolai in support. It’s an interesting mix.”
