Team DSM coach Albert Timmer: “The Brabantse Pijl is the opening to the Ardennes Classics season for us. We have a young team at the start, so our main goal for us will be to work on the basics with them. But with Francesca and Elise, we also have two girls that can do well in the final. So the aim is to race aggressively, play our cards well, and create opportunities.”
