CCC-Liv closes its road season on Tuesday in the AG Driedaagse Brugge - De Panne. The team consists of five riders who also competed in the Ronde van Vlaanderen on Sunday: Evy Kuijpers, Riejanne Markus, Soraya Paladin, Sofia Bertizzolo and Jeanne Korevaar. Valerie Demey is the fresh force completing the team.

Sports director Jeroen Blijlevens: “A lot of wind, up to wind force 4, is predicted. With a race in an open area, we know that this will inevitably lead to echelons which can happen at any time in such a race. There are no real key moments, such as climbs. So it is important that we are positioned well in the front as soon as it breaks. With that in mind, I expect a hectic, nervous race.”
