Fabio Jakobsen starts season at Vuelta a San Juan and targets wins at cobbled classics
CyclingFriday, 06 January 2023 at 17:30
This morning at it's team presentation, Soudal - Quick-Step have revealed the early-season and spring calendar of European Champion Fabio Jakobsen who will start his season soon at the Vuelta a San Juan.
In South America there will be between five and six expected sprint stages and the Dutchman will be looking to start his season on the right foot there. Jakobsen will then move to Europe for a calendar that is similar to this season's, beginning with the Volta ao Algarve on the 15th of February before his participation at Kuurne - Bruxelles - Kuurne.
Meaningfully, he will likely be absent from both Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico, where this season illnesses spread around the peloton at an immense speed. He will return to competition at the Classic Brugge-De Panne which will favour the fast men, and Gent-Wevelgem later on where he will also stand a chance of success if he can handle the cobbles.
Fabio Jakobsen calendar for early 2022:
.Vuelta a San Juan
.Volta ao Algarve
.Kuurne - Bruxelles - Kuurne
.Classic Brugge-De Panne
.Gent-Wevelgem

KerisVroom08-06-2025 - Jonas wanted to congratulate Tadej, that's all. He was distracted.
maria2024202408-06-2025 - A podium would have kept the streak going, but winning makes it even stronger. Since Jebel Hafeet at the UAE Tour, across Strade Bianchi and 4 monuments, he has been no worse than third. 9 consecutive podiums, 6 wins on the road, one GC. Good lord.RidesHills08-06-2025
- Fantastic and unexpected! a Jonas in Tadej style! My fear was that Jonas might be too worried (a bit paralyzed) by the risks of cycling after his crashes.. I'm very happy to see that it's not the case.maria2024202408-06-2025
- Weird that Jonas pulled his hand away from MvDP when MvDP wanted to congratulate him on the 2nd place.KerisVroom08-06-2025
- His team's management, coaches, and agent likely have better insight
Front24208-06-2025 - "I did my best-ever hour in terms of power and was seven minutes behind. The thing is, for me, I've never raced up an hour-long climb before. And I've never trained for an hour-long effort" Bro why are you doing GC for god's sake when you have not the talent, the capacity, the training for GCabstractengineer08-06-2025
- Yes it was shocking to lose the Jersey in such a fashion and there was far to much questionable riding between the top 4, often being saved because Gee was trying to get into the top 3 but riding like was 2nd half the time when was just the 4 of them. The fact Isaac held on for so long given that, at his age was incredible and well worth a celebration. Its his team that truely failed him by chasing down when had dropped Yates(?) that stage and was gonna strengthen his lead and had Gee for IPT riding hard to help (again) to try and get 3rd but stupidly UAE chased it down and that cost the race.HoopoeChai08-06-2025
- He was never in the position to win one so a pointless statement except to confirm that being Italian, he’d never have been able to face his people or continue to live a normal life there but then IDT isn’t Italian, he isn’t even very close to the Mexican cycling scene, hence the lack of problem. Exile would be an alternative to throwing yourself off a tower, every 5y old today knows that ;-)Mistermaumau08-06-2025
- Again another very confusing post. I do not know what FC Barcelona have to do with Germany. No German side use the acronym FCB. Could it be it is yet another typing error from you and you are refering to FC Bayen Munich.
