Team Jumbo-Visma (France) - Press Release: From August 29 to September 20, Team Jumbo-Visma will hunt for the yellow jersey in the Tour de France. The Dutch World Tour formation tries to finish on the highest step of the podium in Paris with one of the two leaders, Primoz Roglic and Tom Dumoulin.

Originally Team Jumbo-Visma had planned to start the Tour de France with three leaders, but Steven Kruijswijk had to cancel due to an injury. George Bennett, Sepp Kuss and Robert Gesink assist Roglic and Dumoulin in the mountain stages. The two leaders can also count on the support of Tony Martin, Amund Jansen and Wout van Aert.

After an altitude camp in Tignes, part of the Tour squad prepared in the Tour de l’Ain and Critérium du Dauphiné. The riders of Team Jumbo-Visma showed in these races that they have a good shape in preparation for La Grande Boucle. This Saturday, the peloton will start in Nice in the south of France. In the first stages, the riders immediately face a lot of altitude meters, which immediately puts the classification riders on edge.

Line-up Tour de France (29/08-20/09):

• Primoz Roglic
• Tom Dumoulin
• Sepp Kuss
• Tony Martin
• Robert Gesink
• George Bennett
• Amund Jansen
• Wout van Aert
