Fabio Jakobsen

Cycling Disciplines

Fabio Jakobsen, born on 31 August 1996, is a Dutch road cyclist whose career is marked by grand tour stage wins and by a near-fatal crash. At the 2019 Vuelta a España he won two stages, including the final stage in Madrid. In August 2020 he crashed heavily at the finish of the opening stage of the Tour de Pologne after Dylan Groenewegen deviated from his line and forced him into the barriers; he suffered serious injuries and was placed in an induced coma, and Groenewegen later received a nine-month suspension. Jakobsen returned to racing in April 2021 at the Presidential Tour of Turkey, then won three stages and the green points jersey at that year's Vuelta a España. In 2022 he won Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne and the Tour of Belgium, took a stage of Paris-Nice and won stage 2 of his first Tour de France.
