Wout van Aert leads Jumbo-Visma at Gent-Wevelgem, Laporte and Kooij as options for a sprint

Jumbo-Visma have absolutely dominated the cobbled classics so far. Having won Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, Kuurne - Bruxelles - Kuurne and E3 Saxo Classic, they now reveal a very strong lineup towards Gent-Wevelgem where they are once again the team to beat.

Wout van Aert has only made his debut in the cobbles this Friday but immediately succeeded. Coming in fresher, he puts himself as the headliner in the Jumbo-Visma lineup for Gent - Wevelgem, a race that could both benefit attackers but also a sprint towards the end.

Christophe Laporte, runner-up last year, will be a second card. The Frenchman hasn't been showing the same form as last year over the past few weeks but his performances over the Opening Weekend were a sign of great things to come. Olav Kooij, who has just finished second in the brutally windy Classic Brugge-De Panne, brings a third option for a sprint.

Nathan van Hooydonck who's been displaying tremendous form this spring gives the team further firepower to attack, whilst the lineup is complete by Timo Roosen, Jos van Emden and Tim van Dijke.

Jumbo-Visma for Gent - Wevelgem: Wout van Aert, Olav Kooij, Jos van Emden, Timo Roosen, Nathan van Hooydonck, Christophe Laporte and Tim van Dijke.
