A solid attack
This is a compact team with strength in all areas. It will, of course, revolve
around Rigoberto Uran, second at the 2017 Tour, who has good reason to aim
for the same result this year. To help him, the Colombian will count on Tejay
Van Garderen, who is a good lieutenant, as well as Daniel Martínez and Simon
Clarke, who are very useful in the mountains. If you add Sep Vanmarcke,
Sebastian Langeveld and Tanel Kangert, this team is much stronger than it
seems. That will be very evident in the team time trial. The team will protect
Uran very well and look to attack, especially in the medium mountains.
