Jumbo-Visma's new signing Tiesj Benoot has revealed his happiness at having the chance to work alongside Wout van Aert in the Classics as he looks to form the one-two punch with the Belgian that he didn't quite find at his two years with Team DSM.

The Belgian, who has a Strade Bianche win and top five at the Tour of Flanders on his palmarès, has evolved into more of an all-round threat during his career, scoring top-five finishes in Paris-Nice, Tirreno-Adriatico, and the Tour de Suisse in recent years.

Cyclingnews is the world's leader in English-language coverage of professional cycling. Started in 1995 by University of Newcastle professor Bill Mitchell, the site was one of the first to provide breaking news and results over the internet in English. The site was purchased by Knapp Communications in 1999, and owner Gerard Knapp built it into the definitive voice of pro cycling. Since then, major publishing house Future PLC has owned the site and expanded it to include top features, news, results, photos and tech reporting. The site continues to be the most comprehensive and authoritative English voice in professional cycling.
