Team Jumbo-Visma 2020 roster presented in Amsterdam


The 2020 Team Jumbo-Visma was officially presented at HEMA headquarters in Amsterdam (Netherlands) on Friday, December 20th. After fifty-two victories in 2019, highlighted by la Vuelta won by UCI Ranking’s #1 Primoz Roglic, the Bianchi-sponsored WorldTour team enters 2020 with even greater confidence.

The Slovenian himself will look forward to improve the 2019 memorable campaign, in which he also netted the overall third place at the Giro d’Italia. Joining him and Tour de France’s third-place finisher Steven Kruijswijk as main GC riders will be fellow Dutchman Tom Dumoulin, winner of the Giro d’Italia in 2017. The 29-year-old Dutch cyclist is one of four newcomers in the team, along with Christoph Pfingsten, Chris Harper and neo-pro Tobias Foss.

After the huge success of the past season, the strong squad for the sprints and one-day races is due to be back in full, highlighted by Dylan Groenewegen, Wout Van Aert and Mike Teunissen – all of them stage winners at the 2019 Tour de France.

AIMING TO PARIS 

Team Jumbo-Visma will head to next Tour de France with a very strong line-up including Primoz Roglic, Tom Dumoulin and Steven Kruijswijk. George Bennett will be captain for the next Giro d’Italia whilst Steven Kruijwuijk will lead the team at Vuelta a Espana. Dylan Groenewegen will focus on Giro d’Italia, Vuelta a Espana, Milano-Sanremo and Brugge-De Panne. Wout Van Aert, Mike Teunissen and Amund Jansen will take load of the team’s ambitions in the Flemish spring while Team Jumbo-Visma Roglic and Dumoulin will lead the charge for the Ardennes classics.
