Bahrain Victorious to Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana

Bahrain Victorious Gears Up for the 75th Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana: A European Season Opener

Amid anticipation for the upcoming 75th edition of the Volta a la Comunitat Valenciana, Bahrain Victorious is ready to make its mark in the picturesque landscapes of the Valencian Community, Spain. According to Sports Director Roman Kreuziger, the race promises a mix of challenges, from mid-mountain stages to demanding mountain passes, sprints, and technical courses, which are anticipated to play a pivotal role in shaping the General Classification (GC).

Highlighting the team’s strategic lineup, Kreuziger notes that their primary focus is securing a top-three spot in the General Classification, led by the experienced Pello Bilbao and co-leader Santiago Buitrago. The stage race will feature a dynamic roster of experienced cyclists and promising talents, including key support from Yukiya Arashiro and Kamil Gradek, climbing expertise from Rainer Kepplinger, sprint potential from Nicolò Buratti, and a wildcard in Matej Mohorič.

Speaking of the significance of the race, Kreuziger emphasizes the importance of focus, commitment, and strategic positioning from the very first day to navigate the challenges and capitalize on bonus seconds. Beyond pursuing GC success and possible stage victories, Bahrain Victorious aims to leave Valenciana with heightened confidence in their form and teamwork, setting a positive tone for the season’s upcoming challenges.

As the race kicks off with the Benicàssim-Castellón mid-mountain stage, Bahrain Victorious has its sights set on conquering the diverse terrain of the Valencian Community and hopes to achieve its race goal: a final podium in Valencia. With the competition’s high level and the riders’ eagerness after a racing hiatus adding an unpredictable element, it is expected to be an exciting start to the European season for Bahrain Victorious.
