Team dsm-firmenich PostNL coach Kelvin Dekker: “Our Italian double-header gets underway with Giro dell’Emilia, which is a nice race that includes the beautiful San Luca finish climb. Last year Juliette proved that she could compete here for the win, when we took third, and that is what we’ll be trying to do again this year. Next to setting up Juliette as our finisher for the last climb, we have multiple strong riders who can play a meaningful role in short but very hard final if things open before the last climb.”
