Prihajajo potrditve: Na Giru Jan Tratnik in Matej Mohorič

Dirka po Italiji se bo začela 8. maja. Obeta pa se pravi spektakel, saj so nastope potrdili številni zvezdniki, ki so očitno tokrat dali nekoliko več prednosti Giru kot Touru. Pričakujemo lahko veliko boje med kolesarji, kot so Bernal, Sivakov, Vlasov, Izagirre, Landa, Bilbao, Buchmann, Evenepoel, Almeida, Carthy, Martin, Bennett, Soler, Hindley, Bardet, Yates, Landa, Nibali, Mollema, Formolo … Mnoge ekipe so do zdaj že potrdile svojih osem kolesarjev.

Med temi je tudi Bahrain Victorious. Letos bosta na dirki nastopila dva Slovenca. Matej Mohorič že četrtič - leta 2018 je dobil tudi etapo - in Jan Tratnik. Zanj bo to tretji nastop na Giru. Lani je dobil etapo. Njun kapetan bo Mikel Landa. Med zvezdniki, ki se ne bodo borili za končno zmago pa lahko vsekakor omenimo še Sagana, Vivianija, Ewana, Ganno, Merlierja, Sancheza, Cavagno, Bettiola, Groenewegna, Nizzola, Gavirio …
