Fabio Aru is set to lead UAE Team Emirates at the Tour de Pologne. The rider will use this race as preparation for the Vuelta a España.
This race will be the second test for Aru after his return to racing at the Tour de Wallonie, in which he finished in the 10th overall position. "I will arrive in Poland after having regained a good racing rhythm in the Tour de Wallonie," commented the Italian. "The route for the Tour de Pologne is well suited to my skills and could help me find an even better pedal stroke.
"There are four climbing fractions; it would be nice for the team and for me to manage to obtain some significant results. The team line-up features some excellent climbers, so we can aim for some satisfying achievements. This is also an important event in consideration of the Vuelta, it is a crucial step in preparing for the Spanish race."
