A few days ago, Ceylin Alvarado (Alpecin-Fenix) took her first victory following a streak of wins by Lucinda Brand (Telenet Baloise Lions). At Zolder, the two had their rematch.
The race started off with Brand in the lead but, despite an earlier stumble, Alvarado was able to stay close behind. Brand made several attacks during the race in an attempt to separate herself from Alvarado and Annemarie Worst (777).
Things closed off in a thrilling sprint finish consisting of Brand, Alvarado, Worst and Betsema. Brand ultimately came out on top with Alvarado, Worst and Betsema following respectively.
