Exact Cross Leonhout: Van Aert again on Van der Poel and Pidcock

New battle between the big three: Van der Poel was highly motivated but once again a few too many mistakes benefited the opponents who come back playing everything in the final sprint.

van aert on van der poel

Today challenge on Loenhout's course in the Exact Cross: course with many artificial sections and lots of mud. But the protagonists do not change.

Again today Mathieu Van Der Poel was super on the ball and put Pidcock and Van Aert to the whip, often forced to chase. Tom Pidcock's race was very nice, and even today he managed to keep up with the 2 purebred horses. Everything was played in the last lap, as usual with a heart-pounding pace, in which everyone wanted to take the lead. Van der Poel didn't want to get to the sprint and with his explosiveness in the technical sections it seemed sufficient to win but, in the muddy section, he missed the trajectory risking a crash and Van Aert and Pidcock returned.

It's the final sprint with Van Aert narrowly winning over Van der Poel and Pidcock.

ppgad@pucrs.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
