Preview. On the 18th of May the riders take on the Circuit de Wallonie, one of the many hilly classics that take place in the region over the year, and a return to Belgian racing after the Ardennes.
The Belgian race is, as always in the Ardennes, a hilly affair. A race made for the puncheurs, with a relatively calm first half but an explosive second part. It will be decided in a final circuit around Mont-sur-Marchienne, one that features a climb of 600 meters at 6.4% that will be ridden three times. The sprint won't be flat, the fast men will have good chances but the drag to the line will make it harder.
Mont-sur-Marchienne - Mont-sur-Marchienne, 185 kilometers

- Now we know the real secret🤣😁
- The UCI adheres to some archaic rules but does not consider serious infringements.🙄
- Isn't he on 6 million a year? Someone knows?
- Just a bit dizzy from having to take all those corners.
- That 2nd acceleration during the 1st.. Pheww.. Simply world class.
- Wuyts needs to take his pills. Van Aert was the only one of all 5 favourites that didn't carry out a real attack. Pogacar twice, Pedersen, Bettiol, MvdP..
- Ganna's gold medal win was really something. Bigham is position is very aerodynamic. Bigham was 2.2 s up at 3.25 k mark and Ganna won making up the deficit in 0.75 k.
- Nobody skips the Worlds!!
- He better could have skipped the Worlds. Someone needs to protect him from his own ambition.
- Their tactic was okay. But what tactics take into account the weather and the Mathieu van der Poel phenomenon
