BARDIANI CSF FAIZANÈ: A WEEK-END FULL OF RACES, WITH PER SEMPRE ALFREDO AND POPOLARISSIMA AFTER MILANO-SANREMO
The sporting weekend of Bardiani CSF Faizanè will not end with the Milano-Sanremo, but will continue in Italy with the second edition of Per Sempre Alfredo and the Popolarissima for the young riders of the youth project. A change in the line-up also for the Milan-Sanremo, Omar El Gouzi takes over from Luca Rastelli struggling with some physical problems.
On Sunday 20 March the Italian calendar of Bardiani CSF Faizanè will continue. After the Milano-Sanremo wait on Saturday 19th, the team will continue with a double activity dividing itself between Per Sempre Alfredo and Popolarissima.
PER SEMPRE ALFREDO – THE LINE-UP:
For the second edition of Per Sempre Alfredo there will be 6 riders at the start, ready to face a more demanding path than that of the previous edition. Departure from Florence and 172 km to go, with a route that could favor the attackers rather than the sprinters. Bardiani CSF Faizanè will be at the start with Filippo Fiorelli and Davide Gabburo, returning from Milano-Sanremo. With him will be the Colombian climber Jonathan Canaveral, who after the Tirreno-Adriatico and the races in northern Europe, will be at the start from Florence. The training is completed by 3 neo-professional athletes Omar El Gouzi, Alessandro Santaromita and Alessio Nieri.
THE LINE-UP:
Filippo Fiorelli (1994)
Davide Gabburo (1993)
Jonathan Canaveral (1996)
Omar El Gouzi (1999)
Alessandro Santaromita (1999)
Alessio Nieri (2001)

POPOLARISSIMA – THE LINE-UP.
An important Sunday also for the Bardiani CSF Faizanè youth project with Mirko Rossato leading the team in the prestigious race for Under23 riders: “An important debut for young fast wheels. In this first appointment we will trust Iker Bonillo, who despite being just 18 has excellent potential. This calendar of races that will allow us to give space to young people in races with their peers is very important to allow them a gradual growth and also give them morale with results and placings that are fundamental to train with the right motivations.”
This is the official line-up:
Iker Bonillo (2003)
Fabio Mazzucco (1999)
Alex Tolio (2000)
Giulio Pellizzari (2003)
Alessandro Pinarello (2003)
DS Mirko Rossato
A last minute change also in the Milano-Sanremo formation with Luca Rastelli stopped by some physical problems and replaced by teammate Omar El Gouzi. For the young neo-pro born in 1999 it will be his debut in a World Tour race.
