The Tour Down Under is one of very few WorldTour events -the only one if we leave aside Guangxi, Turkey, California and Abu Dhabi, whose WT-expansion status makes it not compulsory for WorldTour squads to attend- where the Eusebio Unzué-led organisation has not conquered overall honours yet. The Blues have obtained three second-place GC finishes -Luis León Sánchez, in 2010; Alejandro Valverde, in 2012; and Javi Moreno, in 2013- and two 3rd places -both with José Joaquín Rojas, in 2008 and 2009-, as well as four stage wins: 'Luisle', Ventoso and Valverde won in Willunga from 2010 to 2012, while Lobato claimed honours in Stirling, in 2015.
