Soudal Quick-Step to the Tour de Luxembourg

The Wolfpack is back in action this week.

Our final stage race of the season on European soil and an event we won three years ago, the Tour de Luxembourg takes place between 18-22 September, when the riders will take on a hilly course perfect for the puncheurs and attackers to try to make the difference. A short but undulating individual time trial held in Differdange, on the penultimate day, promises to spice up the fight for the overall victory, which will once again come to a conclusion in the country’s capital.

Soudal Quick-Step, who sits on 30 UCI victories since the beginning of the season, comes to the start of this 84th edition with a team capable of fighting for a good result: Fausto Masnada, Gianni Moscon, Pepijn Reinderink – the young neo-pro who has put in some solid outings this year – Gullegem Koerse winner Martin Svrcek, Mauri Vansevenant and Louis Vervaeke.

“Luxembourg is one of our last stage races of the year and we go to the start with the desire of getting some good results on what will be a challenging week. The guys are confident, so we will try to be in the mix each day and look for opportunities, create chances if possible, and hopefully, come out of the race with some nice results”, said sports director Dries Devenyns.
