"Laigueglia is an important race for the team with Igantiev wearing number oneon his back," said DS Orlando Maini, "and we have prepared well for this event. We know that team work makes the difference, and we are expecting one great collective performance."

After racing in France, Ignatiev is prepared for a strong Laigueglia performance, and accompanying him will be Luca Mazzanti, Daniele Contrini, Ricardo Serrano, Vasil Kiryenka, Nikita Eskov, Pavel Brutt, and Ivan Rovny.
