Team Sky have revealed the seven riders who will represent the team at Milan-San Remo, including defending champion Michal Kwiatkowski, with Luke Rowe riding the longest race in the cycling calendar just seven months after a career-threatening leg injury.

Kwiatkowski will have the number one on his back having won the race in 2017 with a tactically astute ride to follow Peter Sagan's attack over the Poggio and then out-sprint the Slovak on the Via Rom in San Remo.
