Visma advances its calendars with Vingegaard doing the Tour and Vuelta or Pauline in Strade Bianche and Milan-San Remo

Visma-Lease a Bike has unveiled the goals of its main cyclists for the 2025 season with the ambitious objective of regaining the prominence in all races it had two years ago and that, last year, was overshadowed by the power of its main rival, UAE-Team Emirates. The Dutch team sets no limits and will seek victory in classics, stages, and general classifications of different races.

Visma-Lease a Bike outlines the 2025 season for its cyclists

To fight on all fronts, as it did in 2023, will be the goal of Visma-Lease a Bike that starts this 2025 season with renewed ambition. With this attitude, the Dutch team revealed the schedules of its main stars starting with Jonas Vingegaard, who, despite rumors accompanying him in recent months about his participation in the Giro d'Italia, has finally chosen the Tour de France and La Vuelta a España as the two major races he will take part in. The latter, probably to ensure optimal form for the World Championships in Rwanda, which seems favorable for climbers.

On the other hand, a recovered Wout van Aert will focus on the cobblestone classics with which he has unfinished business, especially regarding his main goal: the Flanders-Roubaix double.

One of the key signings to support Jonas Vingegaard in the Tour de France, British rider Simon Yates, will have his chance to shine and will lead the Visma-Lease a Bike team participating in the Giro d'Italia, which was presented a couple of days ago with a tremendously attractive route for a climber like Yates.

Visma-Lease a Bike also revealed the goals of its major signing for the women's team. We are talking about Pauline Ferrand-Prévot, who faces this 2025 with uncertainty about her adaptation to the road after so many years away from the thin wheels in which women's cycling has changed and professionalized so much.

The French cyclist sets realistic goals for this transition season, with her main challenge being the Strade Bianche, a beautiful race that suits her characteristics. This will be followed by her participation in the first edition of the women's Milan-San Remo. Apart from this, Ferrand-Prévot shows ambition in the medium term and sets her sights on nothing less than the Tour de France, a race in which she hopes to be fighting for victory within the next 3 years.

On the other hand, the legendary Marianne Vos will continue for another year in what will be her nineteenth active season. For this campaign, the Dutch rider's goal is clear: to win the Paris-Roubaix cobblestone, one of the mythical races, despite its few editions, that is still missing from her endless list of 255 victories.

Finally, it will be interesting to see the progression of cyclocross star Fem van Empel, who made her road debut last year without notable results and will have to continue growing in the world of road cycling, where she is expected to achieve similar successes to those she already has in the mud.

Good intentions and ambition for Visma-Lease a Bike, which in the men's category faces the tough challenge of regaining the hegemony that UAE-Team Emirates stole from them last year, and in the women's category, in a year of significant movements with leaders changing teams, they have a great opportunity to achieve similar levels of prominence.
