Rain and wind had been promised by our meteorologists, and that promise held true. So the riders were tightly packed at the start in Hooglede.

Three riders applied for the title "breakaway of the day": most famous name was Lionel Taminiaux ( Bingoal- Wallonie Bruxelles), he got Justin Wolf (Bike Aid ) and Jens van den Dool (Metec- TKH) in this breakaway. Before halfway through the race, however, Lionel was brought back to the bunch by the team car, which was obviously not a good thing for the two remaining riders. The saying " birds before the kitten" unfortunately also became true for this likeable duo. We got a splendid sprint, nicely portrayed by Sporza, in which there was no limit to the Dutch sprint bomb Fabio Jakobsen, he easily took the measure of Belgian teammates Timothy Dupont and Alfdan De Decker. 

Top 5: 

1. Fabio Jakobsen  (Deceuninck - Quick Step)

2. Timothy Dupont (Circus- Wanty Gobert)

3. Alfdan De Decker ( Circus-Wanty Gobert)

4. Luca Mozzato ( B&B Hotels - Vital Concept p/b KTM)

5. Thomas Boudat ( Team Arkéa Samsic)
