“I was a little lucky”
Sweek returned to his victory: “I didn’t expect to win here right away, because the others already had competition in their legs and I had to endure the race a bit. I couldn’t really start better than that. I think I I was a bit lucky that Niels (Vandeputte) faltered in that last corner, because in principle you certainly can’t get back on Niels there, because he is so fast. It’s a very important victory for me. , because it’s been a long time since I won.”
