UAE Team Emirates set for Bemer Classic and Italian one day races

UAE Team Emirates will take-on a big block of racing across Europe with the BEMER Cyclassics (8 Sept) in Germany along with a separate squad of riders to the GP Industria & Artigianato (8 Sept), Giro Della Toscana (11 Sept) and the Coppa Sabatini (12 Sept) as the Italian autumn classics get under way in the build-up to the grand finale of Il Lombardia.

Home favourite Nils Politt will lead the teams ambitions at the Bemer Classic while the likes of Marc Hirschi, Diego Ulissi and young talent Jan Christen will all aim for glory in Italy.

Politt: “The Bemer Classic is a very nice race. Obviously I’m looking forward to racing on home roads in Germany, it’s always an extra motivation. I was top-10 here last year and it would be amazing to go even better this year. It’s been a big year for the team, a historic one, and motivation is high to continue like this right to the end of the season.”
The squad in Germany will be overseen by Sports Directors Andrej Hauptman (Slo) and Jan Polanc (Slo), while the teams in Italy will see Fabrizio Guidi (Ita) and Marco Marzano (Ita) as Sports Directors.
