Nathan Van Hooydonck ready to serve van Aert at Tour of Flanders - "Wout has already won a lot, but that Tour is still missing"

Jumbo Visma is geared up to rule the Tour of Flanders with Wout van Aert at the helm, showcasing their unparalleled dominance in the race.

"I think that in a few years we will look back at how smoothly things went then. I hope that we can maintain that flow for a while," said Tiesj Benoot while appearing on Vive le Vélo. Sports director Maarten Wynants further adds, "The gut feeling is of course good. But on Sunday the counters will go back to 0. A monument is always different."

Nathan Van Hooydonck, who took part in the Gent-Wevelgem event, will assist the Belgian rider in a supportive capacity. "The support during the reconnaissance along the course is really incredible. Wout has already won a lot, but that Tour is still missing. Also for the Flemish public, I think."

Given the numerous variables at play and no guarantee of success, it is wise to prepare oneself accordingly, and the team is well aware of this fact."If we lose on Sunday - and that chance is simply greater than winning - then there will of course be Paris-Roubaix next Sunday. And if we do win the Ronde? Then I hope for lots of fries and champagne in the hotel,” concluded Hooydonck.
