As the
UCI plan to overhaul the road cycling calendar, President
David Lappartient has refused to rule out moving around two of the biggest races of the year.
“Due to the corona pandemic, we were forced to move both races to October, but in the end the fans thought it was fantastic," Lappartient explains in quotes collected by Wielerflits, referencing both the
Tour of Flanders and
Paris-Roubaix. "It's not that we absolutely have to do that again, but we don't rule it out either. The most important thing is that the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix follow each other on the calendar. After all, these are two races that require the same preparation.”
