George Bennett has already ridden two races during the national championships of New Zealand. His goal in the Tour Down Under is a good position in the general classification.

Sports Director Frans Maassen: “George is our leader in Tour Down Under. The GC will be determined during the last stage to Willunga Hill. The fourth stage will also prove to be very important. A few kilometres before the finish line there’s a small climb of 2.4 kilometres with an average gradient of 9.1 percent and a maximum gradient of 16 percent.”

“For Danny, there are multiple chances for a sprint finish. It seems that he has the biggest chance on a good result in the second and third stage. These stages include multiple altitude metres and have a tough finish.”
