La stagione del ciclismo 2021 parte dall’UAE Tour, dove ci saranno tanti big pronti a contendersi la vittoria finale. A cominicare da Tadej Pogacar, vincitore dell’ultimo Tour De France. Ma il capitano della squadra di casa, la UAE Emirates, se la dovrà vedere con diversi avversari: su tutti Adam Yates (Ineos), che nel 2020 ha conquistato la generale all’UAE Tour. E poi ancora Chris Froome (Israel Start-Up Nation), il nostro Vincenzo Nibali (Trek Segafredo), Rigoberto Uran (EF Education – Nippo) e l’eterno Alejandro Valverde (Movistar Team). Di seguito la start list, con tutti gli scritti squadra per squadra. Si parte domenica 21 febbraio con la prima frazione.
