Remco Evenepoel will take a race-light and altitude-heavy road to the Giro d'Italia, aiming to replicate the build-up that saw him win the Vuelta a España last summer.

The World Champion had already confirmed that he will start his campaign at the Vuelta a San Juan in Argentina later this month, but he mapped out his programme in greater detail at Soudal-QuickStep's team presentation in De Panne on Friday.
