Falling the week before the Tour of Flanders, Gent-Wevelgem offers the classics specialists one final opportunity to hone their form ahead of the biggest one-day race in Belgium. At 260.8km with gruelling cobbles and multiple ascents of the infamous Kemmelberg, it is one of the most attritional races on the calendar! Biniam Girmay made history by winning in 2022 but who will claim this year’s race?

very nice
thanks GCN R
Can anyone remember a successful escape by two team mates? Outstanding tactics.
Wow ! Major kick in the teeth for the peloton… C. Laporte is saving french cycling from mediocrity !!
The riders did an awesome job to win the race, but also helps to have a bike that responds well. Cervelo is great!
No questions ask Visma is the strongest team nowadays ang it's getting stronger ๐ช
Very classy of Wout to gift this to Laporte, knowing that Laporte will be helping to lead him out later in the year at the TDF
New respect for WVA!
The class of elite riders rn is unparalleled. Wout giving Laporte the win here and Roglic giving Remco the final stage win at Voulta really shows just how amazing all these riders really are.
Thank you
Ouiiii Bravo Christophe et Merci Wout!
If we put everything together JUMBO is the team to WATCH at TDF 2023 mark my words JUMBO
Audio = live from my closet.
why is the full race not on GNC plus?
Girmay?
Squinzi called and said Laporte, Van Aert, Tafi
Wout is superhuman. The guy just doesn't have a weakness. He's not a pure sprinter, he's not an elite climber, but he can do everything so well that it's tough to find a chink in his armor. Really fun to watch him ride, and Jumbo would be lost without him. He's the ultimate teammate.
What a gentleman, bravo Van Aert!
Great race! Awesome for Laporte! WVA – a great team leader. Christophe Laporte – earned a solid victory, and will bury himself for his team the rest of the season. Jumbo made a great signing with him.
I like how the 3rd JV rider let the wheel go as they attacked. Good teamwork!
WVA Absolute Champion

That was cool. I'm more of a MVdP fan, but credit to WVA for a real classy move.
