Swiss Cycling relies on the best in team relay.

The riders for tomorrow's World Championship opener - the team relay - have been announced. Swiss Cycling is not skimping on the size of the athletes and is sending elite riders Jolanda Neff and Nino Schurter, U23 riders Sina Frei and Filippo Colombo and junior Alexandre Balmer into the race. However, the Swiss Cycling Federation is not revealing everything.

For tactical reasons, the starting order remains secret until the start of the relay race. This tactic serves to prevent the other relay teams from coordinating with the Swiss team.
We will find out which of the Swiss will open the team relay on Wednesday at the starting line-up before the race starts at 5.30 pm.
