Van der Poel is charged for the Giro d'Italia and it is no coincidence that we have included him in our Reel available on Instagram with the hypothetical top line-up to be lined up at the Fantacycling for the pink race.

Due to his characteristics, the Dutchman will not be able to aim for the final victory, but given the routes of the first stages, he can actually wear the pink jersey right away and keep it long enough. This means a lot of points at Fantacycling.

The first stage, from Budapest to Visegrád , of 195 km, seems designed for riders like him. So Van der Poel could win right away and then defend the shirt in the next day's time trial in Budapest , on the 9.2 km circuit. On Sunday, the Alpecin Fenix rider completed a specific workout on his time trial bike and then posted the data on his Strava profile. He trained for almost an hour and a half in total, covering 57 kilometers at an average of 38.8 km / h.  

Data to keep under control and to consider in view of the training choices for the Giro d'Italia . Van der Poel costs 54 million at Fantacycling; the investment is important and to be evaluated, but it could definitely be worth it.
