Omega Pharma-Lotto

In 2011, Omega Pharma-Lotto again has the best one-day-rider in cycling in the side. As soon as it goes uphill, nobody is equal to Philippe Gilbert.

Thanks to his extraordinary talent and class the small Belgian rider won big races in 2010. He collected podium spots in almost all the classic races and crowned his great campaign with a victory in the Amstel Gold Race. At the end of the season he was top of the bill again in the Vuelta and the Tour of Lombardy.

In de Tour de France Jurgen Van Den Broeck came out of his team mate's shadow with his fifth place in the general classification. He will be the main rider in the stage races in 2011. Gilbert and Van Den Broeck will find many new faces on their side. The most important newcomer is André Greipel, who is hired to grab many sprint victories for the Belgian team.
