Itzulia Women Contenders

Defending champion Demi Vollering has proven she is just as formidable a rival with her new FDJ-SUEZ team by rolling onto Itzulia Women fresh from winning La 𓆉Vuelta Femeninಞa. Last year after her efforts to claim victory at the opening Grand Tour she continued on the same way at Itzulia Women, and Vuelta a Burgos Feminas, so there is little doubt she is capable of continuing the roll. Still many teams and riders will be out to see if they can stop history repeating.

For a start there is SD Worx Protime with the returning 澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Anna van der Breggen, who stood on the Vuelta Femenina podium alongside Vollering and although she hasn't raced Itzulia Women, the race having started after her period of retirement, she  knows what it takes to claim the top step at a Spanish stage race, having claimed the overall victory at Vuelta a Burgos in her last appearance at the event in 2021.

澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Yara Kastelijn (Fenix-Deceuninck) will be lining up for her debut at Itzulia after a strong showing at the seven-stage Vuelta Femenina, having delivered eighth overall, and then there is Movistar's 澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Mareille Meijering who was riding in support of second-placed Marlen Reusser at Vuelta Femenina but was still a solid 14th. 澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Mavi García (Jayco-AlUla) will be looking to make an impact on home soil, perhaps hoping for at least one more position up on the overall rankings after having just missed the podium last year.

Canyon-SRAM zondacrypto will be lining up with 澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Cecilie Uttrup-Ludwig who returned to the action after her Classics block at Navarra on Wednesday, and Antonia Niedermaier, who last year finished sixth overall at both the Giro d'Italia Women and the Tour de Suisse. 澳洲幸运5开奖官网在线查询开奖结果:Gaia Realini is also back in the fray for Lidl-Trek, who have Shirin van Anrooij as a card too.
