All-in team Jumbo Visma

48 HOURS AFTER FINISH TOUR DE FRANCE AIRSPACE DENMARK

And Jonas Vingegaard is the first Danish Tour the France winner

since 1996.

There's the disbelief. There is the tour victory for Jonas Vingegaard.

This is so much fun.

- This is insane. - Ridiculous.

- That's the Danish flag. - Yes, that's the Danish flag.

No.

Frida, look over there.

This is awesome.

- Incredible. - Indeed.

- Two F16s. - Very cool.

There's a hell of a big cannon under there.

Are you going to wave to the soldiers?

Even crazier than the Tour de France itself.

This after that is insane.

It is the toughest sport on earth.

Bicycle racing, the sport in which every race has 199 losers

and only one winner.

A sport with a hall of fame full of classic names and faces.

A sport that is both a team sport and an individual sport.

A sport in which tradition and innovation are closely linked.

And a sport in which small decisions...

have major consequences.

Being one of the best teams in the world in such a sport means something.

Being a team that has won so much, that has been the best so many times,

that has already let so many riders rise above themselves.

I'm really so happy.

Riders who exist on the asphalt.

Riders with wives and children from whom great sacrifices are asked.

Go Wout, go.

He's the best father. Now you're making me cry.

Because the riders know they have a chance,

but that opportunities don't come along very often.

That's how you do it.

Being a team that knows that centimetres mean a world of difference.

That no race is over before it actually ends.

Primož Roglič has cracked on stage 20.

A team in which everyone understands that those who want everything

have to give it their all.

To be a team that leads in Flanders, Roubaix, the Giro, the Vuelta,

that wants to be the best everywhere,

also in the highest, the toughest and the biggest race.

The Tour.

His big ambition.

Is it possible to dominate all those races?

Winning all those games and possibly even on your own terms?

To be such a team, in such a sport. Team Jumbo-Visma 2022.

The road is yours.

ALL-IN TEAM JUMBO-VISMA

DECEMBER 2021. SANT FELIU DE GUÍXOLS, SPAIN FIRST TRAINING CAMP

- Do you have small? - I think extra small.

- Extra small. - I'm not sure.

Switch places with Primož.

He's a little shorter and the ground is a little lower there.

- You explained that very clearly. - Yeah, right?

Okay, so make sure the sun is in your face.

This means that Tom will take a tiny step back.

Relax.

- Wout, can you come over here? - Get lost.

Okay. Jonas, can you...

If we look back in, say, ten years

to the past decade,

then we want to look back on a period in which we were the best team in the world.

Welcome, everyone. I wanted to have a short meeting together with all of us

to start this training camp. I'm very happy we are all here

and starting here the first day together for preparing the new season.

Tomorrow we start with a 3.5-hour ride.

For some of the riders we also brought TT bikes

that most of you know already.

And I hope we have a really good training camp together.

Let's go.

MERIJN ZEEMAN SPORTING DIRECTOR

And cut.

The main objectives are winning the Tour de France,

winning the Vuelta, winning a monument.

These are the hard targets that we are pursuing this year.

Jonas is still unpolished.

He is a future top-class racing cyclist of our team.

Tom is a phenomenon in the Netherlands.

A left-winger in football.

You don't see him for three games, he loses every ball,

but he is also the one who when it comes down to it

plays off four men in the Champions League final and scores a goal.

Wout speaks for itself.

He is, in all respects...

the best rider in the world.

Primož, same story.

Primož is not interested in a podium finish in the Tour.

He just wants to win. Period.

PRIMOŽ ROGLIIČ, LEAD RIDER TOUR DE FRANCE & VUELTA A ESPAÑA

You can say it in December or you can say it already, in my case, years ago.

Putting your main goals down on the paper.

Your main things where the biggest focus will be.

And now getting closer to it.

Help me, help me.

There is only one goal and that is to win the Tour.

He got very close once.

In 2020, it looked like he was going to win the tour

and in the last time trial, completely unexpectedly,

the yellow jersey was taken from him by Pogačar.

And that has definitely affected him.

Shit.

Top.

I don't want to be defined by winning the Tour or not,

to say, he was a good rider or not a good rider.

But on the other hand, it is definitely something that is missing to me.

And yeah, definitely something I want to achieve.

Yes, yes, this is it. Smiles and suffering.

Besides Roglič, they have another one who was second in the Tour last year.

Jonas Vingegaard. Vingegaard, I think I should say.

Younger, but super talented.

If you see how good he is already...

He is already able to win a major race and who knows, the Tour as well.

Can you clap the board in front of your face?

Yeah. Like this?

JONAS VINGEGAARD LEAD RIDER TOUR DE FRANCE

Perfect.

I have to say I didn't expect to be second in the Tour de France

when I was at the start line.

I'm really happy and proud of that result.

I made three beautiful pictures. You have to choose the best one.

- This one. - This one, yeah.

So if you can skip the yellow guy in the middle next year...

I'll try.

Two years ago, Primož Roglič was second. Last year Jonas Vingegaard was second.

So you have people who have been on the podium, leaders.

And if you can come second, you can win.

But then you have to race very smartly.

Who does this one?

- What is this? - Who does this one?

- You're ready. - Yeah?

- That is two good ones. - Yeah?

Fuck man, that is so painful.

- Just do it. - One minute.

It didn't feel super hard.

The trainers told me you did the best test from all the riders here.

I'm surprised myself, because, like, this time of year...

I would think...

- Short period, huh? - Yeah. I almost didn't train.

- I'm three kilos too heavy. - Three kilos?

- It's here. - But you live in Denmark.

Then you need a bit to survive the cold in winter.

TOM DUMOULIN LEAD RIDER GIRO D'ITALIA

It's on there.

Sometimes I would like to be very stupid, for example.

Maybe you know that feeling, when you think:

your life must be easy if you are very simple.

Then all those very difficult, complicated questions may not pop up.

Nobody really knows what Tom Dumoulin is at Jumbo-Visma at the moment.

Including himself, I'm afraid.

He was brought in as a great leader.

Can you bend your knee? 5.8.

But what happened next

is that Dumoulin no longer knew whether he really wanted to be a cyclist.

And it is great that he was brave enough to bring that to the table.

It's a social problem anyway. Not just something in this team.

- No. - One after the other...

Between the age of 20 and 30, so many people go home with a burnout.

And those kinds of things.

It is of course...

Do you have an idea how we can recognize or prevent this?

Or do you have tips for that?

It's a tough world in that regard.

I also found that difficult in recent years.

There is a bit of a taboo if you're mentally struggling.

He has now been given the chance to find out in the Giro

whether he can still participate in a big race in 2022

and whether he can compete for the overall victory.

And also whether he likes it.

Do you already know where you want this?

I don't know where I want it yet, but I really like to...

The first altitude training. Your question mark.

Well, I definitely want altitude.

I prefer to go for an adventurous altitude training.

For example to Colombia.

WOUT VAN AERT, LEADER SPRING CLASSICS & TOUR DE FRANCE

Win a monument this spring.

And then in the Tour go for the green jersey.

That's the big goal for the summer.

In the autumn there will be a focus on the World Cup again.

You are involved in many of these goals.

Or are you actually the one who has to make it happen.

And we will do everything we can to make help you.

Wout van Aert is a combination of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

We have something to celebrate.

Because we have an athlete of the year from Belgium.

Wout received the award today, so...

I've always been more attracted to what I don't have yet. So...

This is how choices are made every now and then.

The monuments and then the Tour...

There's nothing wrong with that in terms of performance.

You have made all the maximum choices.

We don't make any compromises.

That's why you don't ride Strade, but Paris-Nice as preparation.

I don't feel like I've won everything yet.

I definitely feel like there is more I haven't won than that I have won, so...

Since I am a professional cyclist, I think I should really go for Roubaix.

And I will continue to pursue that until I succeed.

At least, that's what I want.
