On Thursday afternoon, after the "Tre Valli Varesine", the Italian national coach Davide Cassani announced the eleven-member team for the Road Cycling World Championships on Sunday, September 28th in Ponferrada, Spain. Cassani relies on Nibali, Aru and Colbrelli, the remaining eight riders, including the Bolzano professional Manuel Quinziato, should support this trio in the “gold medal” mission. For Edelhlfer Quinziato it is the second road cycling world championship after 2011 in Copenhagen. "We are not among the favorites in Spain, but I will support our top drivers. I am honored by this call-up, perhaps we can pull off a surprise." Quinziato will also take part in the team time trial with his team BMC.
