“It is always difficult in Milan-Sanremo, the race to predict,” put Gilbert from shore. “There are as many scenarios as possible, and a victory depends on very many factors. Our team can play with different maps. I myself was a little sick in the Tirreno-Adriatico, but I am glad I am the race got underway. So I have yet again valuable miles can add to my engine. It is a pity that Fernando Gaviria is not there, but it is missing us already not to options. Milan-Sanremo is one of the largest klasseiekers of the year and we are ready for it.”
