The faithful servant: three years of Nathan Van Hooydonck in pictures

Last October, Nathan Van Hooydonck was forced to put a stop to his professional career. It was a great loss for the team. Although the Belgian rider was never the first to cross the line, he has played an important part in many victories for Team Jumbo-Visma. We look back through a photo album.

In his first year on the team, Van Hooydonck immediately showed his qualities. In Gent-Wevelgem, he was an important pylon in Wout van Aert's victory. In the last grand tour of the year, the Belgian had a big part in Primoz Roglic's third overall victory in La Vuelta a España.

In Omloop het Nieuwsblad, E3 Saxo Bank Classic, and Paris-Nice, Van Hooydonck was an important link in his team's victories. Nevertheless, his biggest success had yet to follow. The Belgian was part of the Tour squad that gave Team Jumbo-Visma its first overall victory in the biggest race of the year.
