The list of riders and teams taking part in the 2020 Ruta del Sol from February 19-23 is slowly being confirmed, with a number of big names beginning their seasons in Spain.
Defending champion Jakob Fuglsang (Astana) will open his season at the race, as will Mikel Landa for his new team Bahrain-McLaren. Rod Ellingworth's team will be taking a strong line-up, including Dylan Teuns, Sonny Colbrelli, and Matej Mohorič.
British Tour Down Under stage winner Matt Holmes will be racing for Lotto-Soudal, while Ag2r La Mondiale's Oliver Naesen will also take the start line.
Movistar are expected to field both Marc Soler and Enric Mas, while Mikel Nieve and Jack Haig could ride for Mitchelton-Scott.
