Good morning friends of OA Sport and welcome to the LIVE LIVE of the men's elite race of the 2024-2025 Cyclocross World Cup in Gavere (Belgium).
The Dutchman shows up at this event to make it a hat-trick after the first two victories upon returning to the World Cup in Zonhoven and the Superprestige in Mol. An already dazzling condition for the World Champion who has already lined up all his opponents and is approaching with confidence what will be his objective of the season, namely the Liévin World Championships.
Furthermore, there is no competition from Tom Pidcock, but above all by Wout Van Aert: the Belgian suffered health problems and did not return to Mol as expected, so the Dutchman has so far been able to dispose of his opponents as he pleased. In Gavère in his career VdP has won four times among the elite and twice among the juniors and can aim for a third consecutive success after those in 2022 and 2023.
As always, it will be a race within a race: on the one hand van der Poel who should have no problems winning, on the other, precious points up for grabs for the World Cup. Michael Vanthourenhout is in the lead with 140 points and from behind they can try to recover points Eli Iserbyt, Pim Ronhaar, but above all Toon Aerts who is 22 points away from the leader.
