The VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizanè is preparing for this trip to Belgium on the eve of the Milan-Sanremo. On March 21, two races will take place on the same day: the Bredene Koksijde Classic, which maintains a course very similar to previous years, linking the two towns that give the race its name over 200.9 kilometers, and the Youngster Coast Challenge, dedicated to Under23 riders, with a route that is almost entirely flat.

Six riders will take part in the Bredene Koksijde Classic, all known for their fast finishes: Federico Biagini, Luca Colnaghi, Lorenzo Conforti, Filippo Magli, Mattia Pinazzi, and Enrico Zanoncello.

The young talents selected for the Youngster Coast Challenge, a race dedicated to Under23 riders, include 5 starters for VF Group Bardiani-CSF Faizanè: Andrea Montagner, Santiago Ferraro, Mattia Stenico, Filippo Cettolin, and Colombian Edward Cruz.

On March 23, the Cholet Agglo Tour will take place, a one-day race of category 1.1 held around Cholet. The riders for this event will be: Federico Biagini, Filippo Cettolin, Luca Colnaghi, Lorenzo Conforti, Filippo Magli, Mattia Pinazzi, and Enrico Zanoncello.

The team will be directed from the car by sporting directors Luca Amoriello and Mirko Rossato.
