LOTTO SOUDAL on Spring races in danger

As General Manager of Team LOTTO SOUDAL I would like to state that it is my sincere wish and the wish of all our riders and staff to be able to start in all Italian and French races of the coming days and weeks. Our respect for the history of cycling, the cycling fans, the organizers and media is high. We really want that the races can go on, despite the ongoing spread of Covid-19.
 
We have a great confidence in the medical experts of the countries involved. That’s why we will respect any future decision made by authorities of those countries - governments as well as race organizers and UCI. We are in constant contact with them and we hope for the best.
