Jasper Philipsen headlining Baloise Belgium Tour as he gets ready for Tour de France
CyclingTuesday, 14 June 2022 at 22:00
Alpecin-Fenix have announced their lineup for the Baloise Belgium Tour and Jasper Philipsen, who will alongside Mathieu van der Poel lead the Belgian team at the Tour de France, will be testing his form ahead of the Grand Boucle.
Philipsen has had a successful start to the season with two wins at the UAE Tour's chaotic sprints, but hasn't been able to keep the streak of wins running. He has however taken a win at the Tour of Turkey, before two German classics where he finished in and around the Top10. Philipsen has not raced since, as he has been training and will be using the Belgian race to prime his form and test his legs.

Last year Philipsen also used this race as preparation for the Tour, where he went on to finish in the podium a total of six times. Philipsen will be going to the Tour with the goal of taking a stage win and to fight for the points classification.
Alpecin-Fenix for Baloise Belgium Tour: Jasper Philipsen, Edward Planckaert, Guillaume van Keirsbulck, Oscar Riesebeek, Dries de Bondt, Alexander Krieger.

- MvdP is just afraid losing Pogi on his sight. Since 2023 Tour of Flanders is a nightmare for him when he dropped.
James2631823-12-2024 - The only handicap for Pogi is heat in the Tour de France but it seems resolved drastically this year and it seems destined to take more glory to his unmatched palmares in years.James2631823-12-2024

- everything you hear about lance and his team back in their “glory” days is so weird and creepy and gross. it always just reinforces that at least among a certain group, lance isn’t hated and despised only for the doping — other dopers have been cast out but not HATED — it’s because he’s just an extremely AWFUL human being in virtually every way imaginable.OCexile23-12-2024
- When I ask AI "Has Tadej Pogacar ever raced cyclocross against Mathieu van der Poel?", the answer says NO. Is that really true? Wonder how they would do when clearly in van der Poel's territory.Ride197423-12-2024
