Team dsm-firmenich PostNL coach Pim Ligthart: “We’re set for an exciting five days of racing in Portugal at the Volta ao Algarve. There are two stages which on paper should end in a sprint, so we will look to set up Casper as our finisher and build on the good start the team had in AlUla Tour. For the two uphill finales we will support one of the fresh faces in our team, Gijs, as finisher. If we ride well on those days then we will see if the GC comes into play.”
