Andrea Bagioli wants to raise the bar and get better results than in the last three years. Guest of Fantacycling, the Valtellinese talent of Soudal Quick Step spoke about his race program for 2023: "I want to do well at the Strade Bianche, then at the Amstel and at the Freccia-Vallone - he explained - probably this last race is the most suitable for my characteristics. If I am captain I will be able to play my cards”.

His season started in a different way than in the past: “I left Mallorca more calmly, to find more strength between March and April and not risk being already at the limit in the period of the most important races. I have to find more constancy that I have lacked so far".

Bagioli races with two phenomenal Julian Alaphilippe and Remco Evenepoel : “I found the first one different in training camp, much more focused on his initial objectives which are Strade Bianche, Tirreno-Adriatico and Milano-Sanremo. It's hard to criticize him after what he's done over the years. The world champion will fight for the Giro and will probably have the team to himself, with no sprinters."

Bagioli then spoke of the possibility of fighting for one week's races, of the most interesting young players in the team, of the future in the blue jersey but above all of the possibility of having a more important role in the team.
