Built on the ashes of the Rabobank formation, which made the pride of the Netherlands before being consumed in financial disputes and doping cases, the Jumbo-Visma team is the fruit of the ambitions of a 53-year-old businessman with an atypical profile, Richard Plugge, who made his creation the best team in the peloton in the space of barely a decade. Three months after having flown over a good part of the Flanders classics season with Wout Van Aert, Christophe Laporte, Tiesj Benoot and Dylan Van Baarle, and a month after winning the Giro thanks to Primoz Roglic, his Yellow and Black are going to the assault of a second Tour de France in a row in the wake of Jonas Vingegaard. Nothing seems able to alter the ambitions of this manager in search of perfection, determined to mark the history of cycling.
