Primož Roglič will start his season at Tirreno-Adriatico on Monday after he was a surprise addition to the Jumbo-Visma line-up for the race.

The Slovenian was initially slated to start his season later this month at the Volta a Catalunya, which was due to be his lone competitive outing in 2023 ahead of the Giro d’Italia.
