The battles over the cobbles and climbs in the classics have come and gone, the bunch has duked it out in the early-season stage races and now one of the toughest tests in cycling awaits the peloton – the Giro d’Italia.

With a race that is steeped in history, and as high as the many mountains it traverses, the 2024 edition of La Corsa Rosa is no different and provides some challenging terrain throughout the three weeks, in which everyone in the peloton will find something that suits their abilities. Spread over the 21 stages there are two time trials, some pure sprint opportunities, reduced bunch finishes, hilly and mountainous terrain that will tempt the breakaway artists, and the Giro’s typically tough high mountains where the GC riders and climbing specialists will battle it out.

Having shown some great recent form, Team dsm-firmenich PostNL are ready to get stuck into an exciting 21 days of racing where they aim to show their distinctive two-striped jersey on multiple fronts throughout the race.
