Giant-Alpecin’s Arndt looking for second-week sprint wins at Giro d’Italia
Giant-Alpecin's Nikias Arndt said Wednesday that he’ll be targeting sprint wins at the upcoming Giro d’Italia, especially when the race becomes more difficult in the second week.
Speaking during the team’s pre-race press conference at the Appeldoorn Omnisport, Arndt said the race has several opportunities for the team.

"The Giro is a tough race, but I like it and it has several opportunities for us as a team. The goal for me is to make the best out of the sprint stages, where I will have some chances already during the first week,” Arndt said.
"After the first week of racing it becomes a bit harder and I personally hope that I can get some good results on the tougher sprint stages, where some of the fast guys don't make it to the finish in the reduced bunch,” he said. “I am in good shape at the moment and we will take it day by day. I just arrived yesterday and I felt a good spirit within the team. It's going to be hard but I think that we have what it takes to get some strong results."
