Challenge Mallorca week gets underway, running from Wednesday to Sunday. A total of 12 riders have been selected by Team Bardiani-CSF 7Saber to tackle, on a rotating basis, the five events on the calendar on the island of Mallorca.

Five days of racing on rolling and selective courses, with constant ups and downs and finishes suited both to sprinters and to resilient, aggressive riders. The level of competition will be high, with 8 WorldTour teams and 12 Professional teams at the start. Leading the team from the support car will be sports directors Roberto Reverberi and Alessandro Donati.

The program will kick off on Wednesday, January 28 with the Trofeo Calvià and will conclude on Sunday, February 1 with the Trofeo Palma Mallorca Fashion Outlet – Paseo Marítimo Palma. In between, there will be a team time trial at the Trofeo Ses Salines – Colònia de Sant Jordi and two particularly demanding races: the Trofeo Serra de Tramuntana and the Trofeo Andratx – Mirador des Colomer.

All races will be broadcast live on Eurosport 2 starting at 14:30, with the exception of the final event, the Trofeo Palma, which will air from 12:30, also on Eurosport 2.
