Fabio Jakobsen

Fabio's biography

In the three years that have passed since turning pro with Deceuninck – Quick-Step, Fabio has made a real name for himself, emerging as one of the fastest sprinters of the new wave and racking up 18 victories, almost half of which came in the World Tour. He also became the youngest rider in more than a decade to reign supreme at the Dutch National Championships and notched two stage wins at his very first Grand Tour participation, the 2019 Vuelta a España.

Last year, he picked up where he left off as early as the month of February, taking three victories in the first part of the season, before the crash in which he was involved at the Tour de Pologne, an incident that gave a huge fright to everybody. An amazing fighter, Fabio has made steady steps in his recovery since, and is now looking forward to donning the Deceuninck – Quick-Step jersey again in what will be a season of rediscovery for the 24-year-old from Heukelum.
