Caleb Ewan will put his new Lotto-Soudal lead-out train through its paces in the first WorldTour races of 2019, the Tour Down Under and Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race. Ewan will be joined by fellow Lotto-Soudal newcomers Roger Kluge, Adam Blythe and Carl Fredrik Hagen.
Thomas De Gendt, Adam Hansen and Tomasz Marczynski round out the team for the Tour Down Under, while Rémy Mertz will step in for Kluge for the Great Ocean Road Race.
The Belgian team will be split between three continents for the first races, with Tiesj Benoot heading to the Vuelta a San Juan with Jens Keukeleire, Nikolas Maes, Jelle Vanendert, Jelle Wallays and neo-pro Stan Dewulf.
In the Challenge Mallorca, the squad will rely on this year's Trofeo Serra de Tramuntana winner Tim Wellens, among others. 10 of the Lotto Soudal riders will tag in and out of the four-day series of single-day races. Wellens will then go on to the Etoile de Bessèges with six teammates from the Mallorca line-up.
