4 Jours du Dunkerque: Gianni Vermeersch wins queen stage as Philippe Gilbert takes over race lead

The queen stage of the 4 Jours du Dunkerque was conquered by Alpecin-Fenix's Gianni Vermeersch, as he sprinted to the win in a reduced group atop the final ascent. Philippe Gilbert, after his win two days ago, has gotten himself in the lead of the overall classification and in pole-position to win the race.
With the attacks in the final laps, a group of six riders managed to forge clear of the rest, and although the race didn't see major gaps, the bonifications were to play and saw the group sprint to the line in the battle where the Belgian succeeded. Having lost time the previous days though, Gilbert now leads the race with four seconds over Oliver Naesen.

- you was so exhausted, ok, then why to ride third-class races immediately after the Tour? do a mix of rest, relax and soft-medium training in your family environment and after the birth of your baby, a month of full, intense training for the world championship! prestigious and suitable race for you (even MAS did well). Sometimes I don't understand Jonas's calendar.

- It happens all to often. My crashes over time have yielded a broken neck, broken back, broken left leg, crush pelvis, three broken collarbones, broken right arm and I've even lost a rib. Somehow I still train and do some races every year, mainly time trials these days.awp22-11-2024
