March 28/21 11:12 am - Gent-Wevelgem results
Posted by Editoress on 03/28/21
Wout van Aert became the 50th Belgian to win Gent-Wevelgem, outsprinting Italians Giacomo Nizzolo (Team Qhubeka Assos) Matteo Trentin (IUAE Team Emirates) and 3 others, remainders of a breakaway group of 25 that went away before the race halfway mark.
As is often the case the wind played a vital part, breaking the peloton into small groups in the Moeren, allowing the leading group to form with some big names. The groups that were behind could not close the gap and after about 180 km on the offensive, it was Wout van Aert who lead the final 6 across the line.
Of the 2 Canadian entries, only Ben Perry (Astana-Premier Tech) finished. 87th at 11:24 back. Hugo Houle (Astana-Premier Tech) was DNF.
