First victory for Jasper Philipsen, who finds the right gap to win the classic Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, raced today on the roads of Belgium. In the final sprint, the Belgian from Alpecin Deceuninck preceded the Dutch rider Olav Kooij (Visma Lease a Bike) and the French rider Hugo Hofstetter from Israel Premier Tech. Jonathan Milan finished only sixth, remaining somewhat boxed in at 250 meters and then forced to make up positions.
As for the race, applause for the breakaway riders Bissegger, Wellens, De Bondt, and Van Petegem, who were brave in holding on until the group caught them just 8 kilometers from the finish.
