Mathieu van der Poel will drive his last race of the (road) season with the Driedaagse Brugge-De Panne next Wednesday (October 21). The Dutchman hopes to end 2020 with a victory.

“Due to the loss of Paris-Roubaix, I try to do everything I can, including the AG Driedaagse Brugge-De Panne, after all a WorldTour race”, says Van der Poel on Wednesday in a message from the organization. “The AG Driedaagse Brugge-De Panne will immediately be my last race of this atypical cycling season with the disappearance of Paris-Roubaix. I secretly hope for a real fan course with a lot of action. If not, I will put myself at the service of Tim Merlier, with him we can also gamble on the sprint. So we have several assets to play, making it a race that suits us as a team ”, said the leader of Alpecin-Fenix.

In addition to Merlier, there are also fast men at the start, such as Caleb Ewan, Jasper Stuyven, John Degenkolb, Matteo Trentin, Sonny Colbrelli and Mads Pedersen, the winner of Gent-Wevelgem. Former employees such as Mark Cavendish and Andre Greipel will also be present, as will Yves Lampaert, Florian Sénéchal, Alberto Bettiol, Stefan Küng, Luke Rowe and Oliver Naesen, among others.

One day before the men, the women finish their Three Days of Bruges-De Panne. With Jolien D’Hoore and Lotte Kopecky, two Belgians are among the favorites. Kopecky won the race at the Belgian Championship, in Gent-Wevelgem D’Hoore.
