Jumbo Visma unveiled its cards for 2023 today during the official presentation. The strongest team of the season just ended with its 49 successes including the Tour de France won by Jonas Vingegaard, looks optimistically to the main objectives of each rider, with priority at the Tour of Flanders, "and/or" Paris-Roubaix, and a double appointment Giro d'Italia-Tour de France .

For the classics Jumbo-Visma will be able to count on Wout Van Aert and Dylan Van Baarle , but also on Christophe Laporte , Tiesj Benoot , Jan Tratnik , Nathan Van Hooydonck , Tosh Van der Sande and   Edward Affini .

Merjin Zeeman , general manager of the team, has no doubts: "We want to start with the best possible preparation and aim for the maximum possible result. Dylan van Baarle, among others, is a crucial addition to our strong classic core. With this collective, I am convinced that we can win with one of our riders".

Primoz Roglic will stake everything on the Giro d'Italia , while Jonas Vingegaard will try to win the second Tour in a row.

"The Giro is a race that I love but that I haven't won yet - said the Slovenian - I'm still recovering from the operation, but by May I hope to be in good shape". He will be accompanied by his compatriot Jan Tratnik and Wilco Kelderman.

"We figured out how to beat Pogacar last year, we know his strengths and where Jonas is superior to him. We come back to the Tour with a solid plan and we think we can aim for yellow again," said Zeeman . Wout Van Aert , Dylan Van Baarle and Tiesj Benoot have also already been announced for the Tour .
