Quick-Step Floors will make the start at Saturday's Milan-San Remo as one of the most watched teams in the bunch, with a race favorite leading the way and a🌸 few strong wild car😼d options as well.
Colombia's Fernando Gaviria has been tipped by several of his peers as a top contender for the likely sprint finish on the Via Roma thanks to his blazing speed. The Belgian squad will hope their star sprinter won'🎐t be too bothered by his wrist—Gaviria suffered a scare when he crashed in training on Thur𒅌sday, but Quick-Step have said he remains set to start Saturday's race.
Beyond Gaviria, Quick-Step also have a dangerous card to play in Julian 🉐Alaphilippe, whose climbing and descending skills make him a t🦩hreat on the Cipressa and the Poggio. Tom Boonen, twice a podium finisher in the race, provides the team with a veteran presence and another option in the finale.
