SD Worx-Protime's participation in La Vuelta Femenina is viewed as a key preparation step for Anna van der Breggen ahead of the Tour de France. Despite acknowledging that an overall win may be too ambitious, the team is hopeful for a podium finish, given Van der Breggen's strong early-season performance. However, her recent illness affected her preparation, making the race an essential gauge of her current form. The team has assembled a support roster to optimize her potential during the event.
"The Spanish leg is an intermediate stage for us, building towards the big goals this summer. With Anna van der Breggen, we have a good card for the GC. The overall victory will probably be too high, but we will fight for the podium."
"Anna's comeback is going well. Nobody expected her to be at this level already. It's a pity she was ill during the Ardennes week. These were important goals for her, and it would have been a good gauge to see exactly where she stands."
