Despite the Volta ao Algarve passing without Elia Viviani notching up his first victory of the 2020 season, the Italian was still pleased with how his race went, with the five-day sojourn around southern Portugal an ideal outing ahead of his busy spring schedule.

The new Cofidis star switches disciplines to the track this weekend for the World Championships in Berlin before tackling the spring Classics, including a near-full complement of the cobbled races.
