Story of the day

The break of the day formed after the first escape was caught. On the Molenberg, Florian Vermeersch attacked, while Rick Pluimers crashed behind him. Mathieu van der Poel skilfully avoided the fall and rode to Vermeersch with Tim van Dijke bridging across. With an acceleration on the muur Van der Poel dropped his rivals and powered to a solo victory.
