MIDDELKERKE, Belgium—The Hansgrohe Superprestige series wrapped up today in Middelkerke, Belgium today. With the series ending and the season wrapping up for nearly every racer, the fields were small, but packed with stars and those looking to take final results before attention turns to road racing and other disciplines.
