Fabio Jakobsen has traded the tried-and-trusted sprint trains of Soudal-Quickstep for lesser-known combinations at Team DSM-Firmenich-PostNL, but the Dutchman is optimistic as he prepares to overcome what he expects to be a bit of a learning curve.

Speaking to a small group of media from the team's training camp in Spain, Jakobsen laid out his plans to build toward his main goal of winning stages at the Giro d'Italia and Tour de France.
