Scheldeprijs
Every year, the Scheldeprijs is a fixed appointment on the calendar for a showdown of the sprinters, although Mathieu van der Poel still has a nice name on the bill. Follow the run-up to the sprinters festival here.
- 2:33 PM Jordi Meeus leader at Bora-Hansgrohe. Bora-Hansgrohe is counting on Jordi Meeus tomorrow. The 24-year-old rider came out of the Tour of Flanders unscathed on Sunday, although his team had a particularly eventful edition of “Vlaanderens Mooiste”. Danny van Poppel, second in the Scheldeprijs last year, had to lick his wounds, just like Shane Archbold and Marco Haller. However, the trio is on the list of participants for the Scheldeprijs. “Jordi Meeus is our man in the Scheldeprijs when it comes to a mass sprint. He is ready”, sports director Jean-Pierre Heynderickx says. “Danny van Poppel fell in the Tour of Flanders. He was taken to the hospital in Izegem, but no fractures were found there. Of course he will start battered and it remains to be seen how far he can complete his efforts.” .

With Jasper De Buyst, Liam Slock and Jacopo Guarnieri, among others, he receives hard workers in support. “It seems that the wind will play less of a role, so that works in our favor,” says sports director Allan Davis. “We are aiming for a sprint with Caleb Ewan, who can show his fast legs.” “We want to keep the momentum of the Classics and build on the success of the past few weeks. The Classics are going well and we want to continue that positive trend.” .
