With the end of the year soon coming, many countries are organizing their own awards to celebrate the achievements of their athletes in 2022. The Netherlands have a prestigious field in which to select, and it features several cyclists as contenders.
The men's list is counting with Mathieu van der Poel, Dylan van Baarle, Fabio Jakobsen and Koen Bouwman from road cycling, and track specialists Jeffrey Hoogland and Yoeri Havik. 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.
In the 11th of December there will be a confirmed list with three athletes/trainers/teams shortlisted in each category, and the awards will be delivered on the 21st of December.

- Just making the note that it’s actually closer to 120 because most of it is consumed in the first 4 hrs, not evenly across 5 hrs up until the finish.crharnishphd04-12-2025

- It's not a big blow for Pogacar. Today, Pogacar relies on a close, increasingly Slovenian circle of experts. Among them, the central figure is his longtime friend Ziga Jerman, who took on the role of masseur in 2025. Jerman has known Pogačar since before his global fame, when they cycled together at the Ljubljana club Rog, so Elguezabal’s departure does not pose a threat for Pogi but rather marks the end of a very successful chapter. UAE will have to fill the gap in its professional staff, but for Pogi, this departure will not play an important role.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- OK, enough of this BS. No one went to college or university from kindergarten. First, Remco must graduate from high school with excellent results to meet with the professor Pogacar in university and to be in same room with him. But you see, Pogi the Great also has a PhD (doctorate in cycling). In 2026, I want to see that success from Remco in high school, because I haven't seen it in these 7 years.NikkoNicco04-12-2025
- calling him a star in cross before he beats MVDP or WVA is also a big stretch.mij04-12-2025
- I think once he's the undisputed leader in a race, he can become more consistent than he was in the past.Ride197404-12-2025
