‘The sting is in the tail for the GC riders’ – SD Worx-Protime back Anna van der Breggen and Nienke Vinke for podium challenge in brutally hard Vuelta Femenina

April produced an uncommon drought for SD Worx-Protime, the Women’s WorldTour team coming up empty on victories. Sports Manager Danny Stam sees a changing forecast from May 3-8, when the team heads to La Vuelta Femenina with leader Anna van der Breggen, third overall last year.

For stage wins, the team has multiple options, including Milan-San Remo winner Lotte Kopecky and Mischa Bredewold, who was second at De Brabantse Pijl.
