Jonas Vingegaard Hansen (Danish: [ˈjoːnæs ˈʋe̝ŋəˌkɒːˀ ˈhænˀsn̩];  Rasmussen;[9] born 10 December 1996) is a Danish professional road racing cyclist who rides for UCI WorldTeam Visma–Lease a Bike.[10] Described as one of the best climbers of his generation,[11][12][13] his rivalry with Tadej Pogačar is considered one of the greatest of all time.[14][15] He is best known for winning the 2022 and 2023 editions of the Tour de France.

Vingegaard, whose youth career initially saw little success, made his Grand Tour debut at the 2020 Vuelta a España. Then, in 2021, he participated in his first Tour de France and secured a second-place finish overall.

In early 2022, he was appointed Team Jumbo–Visma's co-team captain alongside Primož Roglič ahead of the 2022 Tour de France. During the race itself, he not only clinched the overall classification but also claimed the polka dot jersey. This made him the second Danish cyclist ever to win the Tour de France. He also set a record for the highest average speed throughout the entire race. In 2023, Vingegaard achieved his second successive Tour de France general classification.

Career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Vingegaard was born and raised in Thy. He played both football and handball from an early age.[16] Vingegaard was a spectator, alongside his father, when the first stage of 2007 Danmark Rundt departed on 1 August from Thisted, the main town in the region. At the race, local cycling club Thy Cykle Ring had set up a home trainer so audience members could see what it was like to cycle up a mountain. He subsequently enrolled in the club and started riding his first races.[17][18] He cycled with the Thy Cykle Ring for five seasons, until he moved to Aalborg Cykle Ring in 2013.[19] In 2014, his last year as a junior rider, Vingegaard joined Odder Cykel Klub. When he became a senior rider, he initially struggled and performed poorly in races.[20] When Odder Cykel Club established a U23 team from the start of 2016, results improved for Vingegaard. In the spring, he finished on the podium at a race in Aalborg, and in May, he won a section of Pinse Cuppen in Hammel, where the riders had to climb the famed local hill Pøt Mølle several times.[21]

Team ColoQuick–Cult (2016–2018)

[edit]
Vingegaard racing in 2017

As Vingegaard was beginning to achieve better results in races, Danish UCI Continental team ColoQuick–Cult and general manager Christian Andersen signed a contract with him in May 2016 and he switched teams with immediate effect.[22] In order to structure his daily life, Andersen had Vingegaard start a job at a fish factory, Chrisfish in Hanstholm. Working there during weekdays, Vingegaard skinned fish from 6am to noon before training in the afternoons.[23] For a time he worked with Michael Valgren at the factory, who was also pursuing a career as a professional cyclist.[24]

In 2016, at age 19, he also accomplished his first major international result, finishing second in the UCI 2.1 level race Tour of China I.[25]

In large parts of the 2017 season, Vingegaard did not take part in many races as he was sidelined with a broken femur after a crash in the 2017 Tour des Fjords.[20][26] Before the injury, he finished in fourth place overall and won the youth competition in the French stage race Tour du Loir-et-Cher.[27]

By the time he recovered from his broken leg and the 2018 season began, he returned to strong form. On a training trip to Spain in early March 2018, Vingegaard set the time record on the test climb Coll de Rates. He cycled the 6.5 kilometers in 13.02 minutes, which was 12 seconds faster than the previous record holder Tejay van Garderen.[28] In mid-2018, his physique was tested at Team Danmark. Afterwards, sports physiologist Lars Johansen said about Vingegaard:

He simply has a pump and a heart that is in a class of its own. His [heart] is far clear of the average of Danish, male cyclists'. He has a plus of maybe 15 percent, and that is significant.[29]

Team Jumbo–Visma (2019–present)

[edit]

He joined Team Jumbo–Visma in 2019, and that year, he achieved his first UCI WorldTour win in stage 6 of the Tour de Pologne.

The following year, he finished eighth in the 2020 Tour de Pologne. He also completed his first Grand Tour, the 2020 Vuelta a España, where he rode as a domestique for Primož Roglič, who went on to win the race overall.

2021

[edit]

Vingegaard won stage 5 of his first race in 2021, the UAE Tour, before winning two stages and the overall in the Settimana Internazionale di Coppi e Bartali. Later in the year, he finished second overall behind his teammate, Roglič, in the Tour of the Basque Country.

In April, Vingegaard was named as a replacement for Tom Dumoulin in the team's 2021 Tour de France squad.[30] In the Tour, Vingegaard originally rode as a domestique for Primož Roglič, who was one of the big favorites for the GC. On stage 3, Roglič crashed heavily and despite the team's efforts to bring him back, the team finished almost a minute and a half down.[31] On stage 5, a 27.2-kilometre (16.9 mi) individual time trial, Vingegaard finished third to enter the top ten on GC.[32] On stage 8, the race's first mountain stage, Vingegaard finished with the main GC group, losing almost three and a half minutes to Tadej Pogačar, who took over the yellow jersey.[33] Vingegaard rose to fifth on GC at exactly five minutes down. After the stage, Roglič withdrew from the race due to his injuries, leaving Vingegaard as the team's only general classification contender.

On stage 11, which featured a double ascent of Mont Ventoux, Vingegaard attacked on the second climb of the Ventoux. Although Pogačar was initially able to follow him, Vingegaard was able to drop the yellow jersey, gaining an advantage of almost 40 seconds at the top. However, he was caught on the descent to the finish. As a result of his time gains, Vingegaard rose to third on GC.[34] As the race headed into the Pyrenees, Vingegaard solidified his position on the podium. On stage 17, which finished atop Col du Portet, Vingegaard and Richard Carapaz were the only ones able to follow Pogačar's attack. In the sprint, Vingegaard finished second to Pogačar, rising to second on GC.[35] The exact scenario took place on the next stage, which finished atop Luz Ardiden, with Vingegaard once again finishing second.[36] On the penultimate day time trial, Vingegaard took third place once again, solidifying his second spot on GC.[37] He safely finished the last stage to become the second Danish rider to achieve a podium finish in the Tour de France and the first since 1996.[38]

2022

[edit]

His first major result of 2022 was finishing 2nd in Tirreno–Adriatico, which he followed up by finishing 6th in the 2022 Tour of the Basque Country. Team Jumbo-Visma dominated the 2022 Critérium du Dauphiné where Vingegaard finished 2nd behind teammate Roglič, and won the queen stage of the race.[39]

He started the Tour de France in strong form with Pogačar being the only GC rider finishing ahead of him after the opening stage individual time trial. On stage 5 Roglič suffered a crash which cost him time and Vingegaard nearly lost considerable time himself. He suffered a mechanical and could no longer ride his bike, but teammate Nathan Van Hooydonck was nearby to give him his bike. Van Hooydonck's seat was positioned considerably higher than Vingegaard's so he had to be out of the saddle the entire time. His teammate Steven Kruijswijk came by and offered to give up his bike, but then the team car arrived and got his backup.[40] Thanks in part to the powerful effort of Wout van Aert near the end of the stage, Vingegaard lost little time. In the following stages, he would battle with Pogačar for stage wins and time bonuses and end up as the only GC rider within a minute of the lead as the race entered the high mountains. Stage 11 included a final climb of the Col du Granon, a climb which had not been used since 1986 where Greg LeMond seized the yellow jersey from Bernard Hinault. Team Jumbo-Visma attacked Pogačar on the Col du Télégraphe and Col du Galibier with Roglič while having Laporte and Kruijswijk nearby and van Aert up the road. On the final climb Vingegaard attacked at the 5 km mark, and dropped Pogačar for the second time in his career, except this time Pogačar was not able to make it back. Relentlessly advancing, Vingegaard won the stage and the yellow jersey and gained +2:51 on Pogačar. This put Vingegaard in the lead and relegated Pogačar to third, behind second-placed Romain Bardet.[41] This was the first Tour de France stage victory of his career. He defended his lead the following day which concluded with a mountaintop finish on Alpe d'Huez.

Over the next few stages, Pogačar made a few attacks, which forced open small gaps with the other top-placed GC riders, but Vingegaard was able to respond to each of them.[42] Team Jumbo-Visma did suffer a serious setback prior to the rest day, losing two powerful riders with Roglič not starting stage 15, and Kruijswijk crashing out during the stage.[43] Fortunately for Vingegaard the team's strongest mountain climbing domestique, Sepp Kuss, was riding with good form and would be there to start the third week. On stage 17 Vingegaard was the only rider to stay with the UAE Team Emirates combination of Pogačar and Brandon McNulty up the final climb. Inside the final 500 meters of the very steep finish, both Pogačar and Vingegaard attacked to go for the stage win, but Pogačar took it on the line. The only time Vingegaard lost was the four seconds difference in bonus time. On stage 18 he answered the early attacks made by Pogačar. Prior to the final climb on Hautacam Pogačar crashed, and Vingegaard held up a moment and waited for Pogačar to catch up.[44] On the final climb he followed the lead of Kuss the majority of the way. Not long after the work of Kuss was done he and Pogačar had caught Wout van Aert, who had attacked at kilometre zero. Before long Pogačar appeared to be on the verge of cracking behind them and Vingegaard seized the moment and attacked.[45] By the time he crossed the line he put just over another minute into the two-time defending champion, claimed his second stage win, an unassailable lead in the Mountains Classification, and all but sealed his victory prior to the final time trial on stage 20.[46][47] The battles between Pogačar and Vingegaard continuously blew the rest of the field apart. Going into stage 19 3rd place Geraint Thomas was about eight minutes back, and then David Gaudu and Nairo Quintana were over ten minutes and approaching fifteen minutes behind respectively. During the final time trial he rode aggressively, and had among the fastest times at the first checkpoints, only backing off once it was clear no serious time would be lost.[48] He crossed the finish line in Paris about a minute behind the sprinters, riding side by side with his remaining teammates to finish a historic Tour win, setting a record for the highest average speed ever throughout the entire race.[49]

During the following months, Vingegaard was absent from several races where he was awaited after his victory in the Tour de France, especially the Tour of Denmark and the World Championships scheduled for September. Several newspapers questioned his state of morale and mentioned the "tough times" the champion was experiencing.[50] He made his comeback on 27 September for the CRO Race, where he won two stages and finished second overall to Matej Mohorič by a single second.[51][52]

2023

[edit]

Vingegaard started off the 2023 season in late February at the O Gran Camiño stage race in Galicia, Spain. He swept the race, winning all three stages that were contested, as stage one was neutralized, in addition to the overall title and the mountains classification.[53] He next competed at Paris–Nice, where he placed third overall behind Tadej Pogačar and David Gaudu, having lost just over 40 seconds to them on stage 4.[54] He next entered and won the Tour of the Basque Country, along with three stage wins and the points classification in the process.[55] At the Critérium du Dauphiné, the most important preparation event for the Tour, he won two stages and won the general classification by the biggest margin since 1993: over two minutes ahead of second place Adam Yates.[56] Vingegaard's performanced cemented him as one of the two favorites for the 2023 Tour de France alongside Pogačar.[57]

At the Tour de France, Vingegaard started strong, attacking on stage 5, 1.5 km (0.93 mi) from the summit of the Marie-Blanque, and gaining over a minute on Pogačar. This moved Vingegaard into second overall behind stage winner Jai Hindley, while Pogačar dropped to 6th.[58] The following stage proved the Tour would be a close battle, as Pogačar accelerated 2.5 km (1.6 mi) from the finish in Cauterets and dropped Vingegaard, winning the stage and gaining 24 seconds. Despite losing time to Pogačar, Vingegaard took the yellow jersey with a 25-second lead as the overnight leader Hindley dropped to third overall.[59] Over the next mountain stages, Pogačar chipped away at Vingegaard's lead, reducing it to 17 seconds after stage 9 and just 9 seconds after stage 13.

The course of the race would dramatically change after the 22-kilometer time trial on stage 16. Pogačar rode first and set what appeared to be a strong result, taking the stage lead by 1:13 over Wout van Aert. However, Vingegaard proved to be on another level, leading by a wide margin at all time checks and finishing 1:38 ahead of Pogačar.[60] Vingegaard described the stage win as "one of my best days on the bike ever," and commentators widely agreed it was one of the best and most shocking time trial performances in the history of the Tour.[61][62] The following stage, a high mountain finish to Col de la Loze, would prove to be even more decisive, as Vingegaard cracked Pogačar early on the final climb and finished nearly 6 minutes ahead. This extended Vingegaard's overall lead to 7:35, and Vingegaard would defend this lead to Paris to win the race for the second consecutive year.[63]

Vingegaard next competed at the 2023 Vuelta a España, going into the race as co-leader alongside Primož Roglič. In the first week, he maintained his position as a favorite for the overall classification. However, on the stage 10 time trial, he lost about a minute to Remco Evenepoel and Roglič, and found himself over two minutes behind teammate and race leader Sepp Kuss, who had gained several minutes in a breakaway on stage six. However, Vingegaard soon rallied to take stage wins on stages 13 and 16 as well as second to Roglič on stage 17, moving himself into second with only 8 seconds to Kuss.[64][65] He ultimately finished second overall, 17 seconds behind Kuss, with Roglič finishing third in an unprecedented podium sweep for Team Jumbo–Visma.[66]

2024

[edit]
Vingegaard at the 2024 Tour of the Basque Country

In 2024, Vingegaard again began his season at the O Gran Camiño from 22 to 25 February, where he won the general, mountain, and points classifications. Vingegaard secured victories in all stages except the stage 1 time trial, each by a margin of more than 10 seconds.[67] He then participated in the Tirreno-Adriatico between 4 and 10 March, winning the general and mountain classifications. Vingegaard achieved first place in stages 5 and 6, finishing 1:24 ahead of second-placed Juan Ayuso.[68] Reflecting on Vingegaard's performance, Ayuso remarked, "I think I'm the first human in this race. Chapeau to Jonas," adding that "I think he right now is on another level so we have to fight for second, I'm happy."[69]

Vingegaard's participation in the Tour of Basque Country was curtailed, owing to a crash on stage 4 on 4 April. The incident, which involved multiple riders, resulted in the race being neutralized. Vingegaard sustained a punctured lung, together with a broken collarbone and several ribs, necessitating hospitalization.[70] This marked his first serious accident since winning the Tour de France in 2022. The crash was noted for its severity, affecting other competitors including Primož Roglič, Remco Evenepoel and Jay Vine.

Following his crash, Team Visma-Lease a Bike confirmed that Vingegaard underwent a successful operation on his collarbone and would spend the following weeks in recovery. Sports director Merijn Zeeman stated that "Jonas only goes to the Tour if he is one hundred percent." [71][72] On 20 June, Vingegaard was confirmed in Visma-Lease a Bike's Tour de France line-up, ending weeks of speculation about his fitness.[73]

On 10 July, Vingegaard won his fourth career Tour de France stage on stage 11, outsprinting his main rival Tadej Pogačar. He had reeled Pogačar back in on the penultimate climb in Massif Central after Pogačar had pulled away from the field earlier in the stage. After his victory, Vingegaard said, "Three months ago, I really believed I was going to die. Now, sitting here with a stage win in the biggest race in the world, it's incredible."[74][75] He finished the 2024 Tour in second place, falling 6'17" behind winner Tadej Pogačar and 3'01" ahead of Remco Evenepoel.

On 18 August, he won the general classification of the 2024 Tour de Pologne, 0'13" ahead of Diego Ulissi. It was his third stage race victory of the season.[76] Following the victory, Vingegaard chose to end his 2024 season, notably skipping the Vuelta a España and the World Championships.[77] Vingegaard cited his extreme fatigue after the 2024 Tour, saying "I'm tired, I don't think I've ever been this tired after a Grand Tour before."[78]

Personal life

[edit]

Vingegaard is the son of Claus Christian Rasmussen and Karina Vingegaard Rasmussen from Hillerslev, Thy. He has one sister, Michelle Vingegaard Rasmussen. In primary school, he attended Hillerslev School until 7th grade, while he took 8th and 9th grades at Tingstrup School in Thisted.[16] From August 2012, Vingegaard attended the voluntary 10th grade on the cycling track at ISI Idrætsefterskole in Ikast.[79] Afterwards, he enrolled in Thisted Handelsgymnasium for secondary education, attending the Higher Commercial Examination Programme (HHX).[80][81][82]

Vingegaard married Trine Marie Hansen (b. 1987) in Glyngøre.[83] They met when Vingegaard was a rider with Team ColoQuick from 2016 to 2018, and Trine was the team's marketing manager.[84][85] In September 2020, Trine gave birth to their daughter, Frida. In September 2024, they had a son.[86] Hansen's mother is Rosa Kildahl Christensen, who became nationally known as a participant in Den store bagedyst in 2017, the Danish version of the British televised baking competition The Great British Bake Off.[87]
