It’s the penultimate race ahead of the big showdown, Tour of Flanders, and Bahrain Victorious will be looking for a result at Dwars door Vlaanderen with Fred Wright and Andrea Pasqualon. 

Starting in Roeselare, the peloton will take on 183.7km before the finish in Waregem. The 77th edition of Dwars door Vlaanderen will feature 11 climbs starting with the Volkegemberg and eight cobbled sectors. 

After a disappointing final 5km where Mohoric crashed at Gent – Wevelgem, missing out on a top-10 finish, the SD Enrico Poitschke will be hoping for different fortunes this time out: “We have had some misfortune and made some mistakes in the last couple of races. We will be looking to get a good result on Wednesday (29th) and build some momentum and morale in the team ahead of the Ronde.

We know Fred and Andrea can achieve a result in this race, and we will be looking to work together and be in for a chance to win. We’ve seen a very high level in these classics from Van der Poel, Van Aert and Pogacar, but we will race aggressively and put ourselves in the best position to achieve a result.”
