Jesús Hernández Blázquez (born 28 September 1981) is a Spanish road bicycle racer for Tinkoff of the UCI World Tour.[2] Born in Ávila, Hernández turned professional in 2004, and has taken part in the Vuelta a España three times, but withdrew on the first two occasions during the third week. He finished 19th in the 2009 event.

He is well known as being long-term friend and domestique of Alberto Contador - accompanying Contador from Liberty Seguros to Astana to Saxobank/Tinkoff. During the Astana years Lance Armstrong applied to him the nickname "Sweet baby Jesus".

He rode his first Tour de France in 2010 with Astana and his second in 2011 with Saxo Bank–SunGard.
