Team DSM coach Phil West: “The Tour of Romandie will present us with some nice race opportunities following the Ardennes classics as we head towards the Giro. The race will again include two individual time trials and a mountaintop finish, so we expect a good GC race to be fought out during the week. Romain [Bardet] will be our leader for the classification, but we will begin the race with a focus on good teamwork as we hunt each day for stage results as the basis to compete in the overall standings.”
