Primoz Roglic and Wout van Aert headline Jumbo-Visma at Paris-Nice

With Paris-Nice to start on Sunday 6th of March, Jumbo-Visma is set to take a team with immense quality as they finished their February altitude camp schedule and are now targeting the first big goals of the season.

Primoz Roglic has unfinished business with Paris-Nice after he dominated the race last year, winning three stages but then crashing on the last day, loosing the overall classification. Despite not showing his best form yet, the Slovenian comes as the man to beat, however Jumbo have a team to support him when racing gets hard.

Steven Kruijswijk should be the most reliable domestique for the mountains, as the team brings in two wildcards in Rohan Dennis who should be focused on the time-trial and in helping, and Wout van Aert who can realistically target most stages, and although he could have a supporting role in the overall classification he can also eye it himself.
