France as well as taking a silver medal at the Wollongong Worlds, and, this spring, winning Gent-Wevelgem and Dwars door Vlaanderen.Laporte has been a key part of Jumbo-Visma's spring Classics squad, which dominated much of the cobbled Classics this year, and will ride the Tour once again this July.

"His arrival proved to be a success, and in a year and a half, he has gained the leader status. In addition, Laporte plays a crucial supporting role for Wout van Aert in the classics and for the GC riders in the Grand Tours. We are also convinced that he still has room to grow."There was a lot of competition from other teams to sign him. But Christophe consciously decided to stay longer because of who we are and how we work. I take that as a huge compliment."Laporte, who can also count wins at the Tour of Denmark and Binche-Chimay-Binche among his successes at Jumbo-Visma, joins team leader Wout van Aert in confirming his stay through 2026, while Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard is signed through to the end of the 2027 season.Other key riders, including Primož Roglič, Tiesj Benoot, and Dylan van Baarle, are signed to the end of 2025.
