Liquigas-Cannondale heads to China. Moser and Viviani to lead the team
The team starts the Tour of Beijing on 9th
The next date on Liquigas-Cannondale’s international calendar takes the squad to China. The green and blue team will compete from 9th to 13th October in the second edition of the Tour of Beijing, which is the final UCI WorldTour race of the season.
Directed by DS Stefano Zanatta and Biagio Conte, Liquigas-Cannondale will line up in Beijing with eight men. Young riders Moreno Moser and Elia Viviani will lead the team: Moser will be invaluable for the mixed stages while Viviani will focus on the sprint finishes (he won the fourth stage in 2011). They will be supported by Eros Capecchi, Mauro Da Dalto, Tiziano Dall’Antonia, Maciej Paterski, Daniele Ratto and Cristiano Salerno who can also hunt down some stage wins if the chance arises.
