The 22 teams of the 106th Giro d’Italia were presented on Thursday night in Pescara, close to Saturday’s start town of Fossacesia.

A few teams sported special kits just for the first Grand Tour of the season. EF Education-Easypost displayed their oddments outfits.

The last few days have been tough for Jumbo-Visma and Primož Roglič’s bid to win his fourth Grand Tour. Three fellows have been replaced due to COVID-19 positives–including one of the replacements.

The other main favorite of this Giro is world champion Remco Evenepoel. In light of champion Jai Hindley not being in the race, Evenepoel will wear the number one.
