Preview by Johnny Weltz:
The team has the biggest favorite in the race in Tyler Farrar, who after an overall win in Circuit Franco-Belge and a solid Vuelta a Espana is in top shape. He has as a right-hand man in Martijn Maaskant who is also in top shape to help him crown a year where he has proved to be one of the best sprinters and riders in the world.
The team will have a hard job in controlling the race as everybody will look towards us to take charge to bring things together during the day. The race is mostly flat but exposed to the wind with some tricky climbs in the final.
