Swiss Pro Continental team Naturino-Sapore di Mare has decided on an alternative line-up for Italian stage race Tirreno-Adriatico from March 9-15, since the team's leader, Francesco Casagrande, has suffered a microfracture in his left knee. Casagrande will have to pause for a while, an exact time of recovery unknown. Naturino will therefore have the following riders in Italy next Wednesday: Valerio Agnoli, Alexander Bazhenov, Alessandro Bertuola, Francesco Failli, Alessio Galletti, Sergio Marinangeli, Massimiliano Mori, Andris Nauduzs and Filippo Simeoni.
