Team DSM coach Marcel Sieberg: “We go to the race with Sam and Cees as our fast finishing options and a nice, strong supporting group around them. From the start onwards we want to be present in any dangerous groups that are looking to go clear. On the three local laps in the beginning, the roads twist and turn a lot and if there is a strong wind then this area can play a big role in the race. On the final circuit, which we complete nine laps of 12 kilometres, the wind can also be dangerous too so we have to be sharp in these moments. Our goal is to be there with our fast finishers in the final to sprint for a top result.”
