The team’s sports director, Vidal Fitas, defined the goal for this Tour of Portugal, in statements to the Lusa news agency:
“The realistic objective of Atum General-Tavira-AP Maria Nova Hotel is to fight for the podium in the 83rd Volta a Portugal, although he does not exclude fighting for the yellow, should the opportunity arise for Alejandro Marque to bid a grand farewell to the peloton.”
