Meanwhile on the women's side, season dominator Annemiek van Vleuten is present, joined by two other veterans of the peloton Ellen van Dijk and Marianne Vos.

Furthermore, Louis Delahaye and Merijn Zeeman - Jumbo-Visma's DS and main figure behind the wheel at the Tour de France - have been selected as candidates for trainers of the year, whilst Jumbo-Visma also finds itself amongst the selection for team of the year.
