Belgian sprint sensation Jasper Philipsen, known for his explosive finishes and fearless positioning, is once again in the headlines — but this time, it’s his team that’s speaking out.
This morning, Alpecin–Deceuninck officially released a report detailing Philipsen’s current form, fitness status, and tactical focus as the Tour de France 2025 enters its most decisive stages.
- Philipsen is in peak condition, with “excellent power data” from recent flat and transitional stages.
- The team confirmed that he remains their primary sprinter, with full support from lead-out men like Jonas Rickaert and Robbe Ghys.
- Philipsen’s minor crash from Stage 7 “did not result in serious injury,” and he’s “ready to contend for multiple stage wins” in the coming days.
- He is also targeting the green jersey, and management is “confident in his trajectory.”
“Jasper is mentally sharp, physically dialed in, and tactically mature,” said team director Christoph Roodhooft.
“We’re committed to giving him every opportunity to win and to compete for the points classification.”
With several flat stages remaining in the Tour, Philipsen is now positioned to go head-to-head with top rivals like Fabio Jakobsen, Dylan Groenewegen, and Arnaud Démare. His ability to handle chaotic finishes and maintain speed under pressure makes him a favorite — and this latest update only strengthens that outlook.
Jasper Philipsen isn’t just back — he’s locked in. With his team at full strength behind him and his goals clearly defined, fans can expect fireworks in the sprints ahead.
