Despite challenging himself at the world’s highest stage at World Cups, Super Prestige events, and now the BPost Series, Wout van Aert remains undefeated during the 2015-16 season. He took a big win today in the first round of the BPost over Kevin Pauwels and Lars van der Haar. Sven Nys came in for fourth.
Pavla Havlikova of the Czech Republic won in the Women’s Elite Race, and is proving herself to be the rising rider to watch. Although she consistently landed top tens in years past, her multiple podium finishes for the 2015-16 season is revealing that she is finding a new level for her talent. Jolien Verschueren took second, and Nikki Harris came in for third, followed by Sanne Cant.
