Matteo Jorgenson has been tipped as a future Tour de France contender and possible winner, but this year, his main role will be that of supporting teammate Jonas Vingegaard, say Visma-Lease a Bike management.
Jorgenson’s potential status as a GC contender had been the subject of a great deal of internet speculation in the last few weeks. That was accentuated after taking a surprising second place overall in the Critérium du Dauphiné and dropping overall winner Primož Roglič (Bora-Hansgrohe) on the last summit finish, coupled with Vingegaard on the comeback trail from his Itzulia Basque Country crash.
