The winner of the 2019 Tour and the 2021 Giro will be in the Vuelta from March 20 to 26at the start of the season in Europe, after the knee injury he suffered in the Vuelta a San Juan (Argentina) and which has kept him recovering for a month and a half, as reported by his INEOS Grenadiers team.

Since the serious injury he suffered more than a year ago, the Colombian had only suffered in the Tour of San Juan this year and in the Tour of Denmark, the German Tour, the Giro della Toscana and the Sabatini Cup last year.

Bernal’s main objective in these months is to achieve a good physical, mental and sporting condition to participate in the Tour de France, which begins on July 1.

In the ‘Volta’, the Colombian will not arrive as squad leader, in a team made up of the Spanish Jonathan Castroviejo, Ethan Hayter (GB), Luke Plapp (AUS), Salvatore Puccio (ITA), Geraint Thomas (GB) and Ben Tullet (GB).

(Also: James Rodríguez, alert: complex situation that Daniela Ospina lives with her daughter).
