PREVIEW | 4 Jours de Dunkerque 2024 - Kasper Asgreen leads modest classics field but sprint bonifications can decide the race
CyclingTuesday, 14 May 2024 at 09:16
From May 14th to 19th, the 4 Jours de Dunkerque takes place in northern France. This six-day race is among the many prominent French events during this season, known for its thrilling finales that showcase the talents of sprinters and classics riders alike. Let's preview the upcoming race.
Stage 1: Dunkerque - Le Touquet-Paris Plage, 171.6 kilometers
The race starts off with a stage for the sprinters starting in Dunkerque and finishing in Le Touquet. It is the first of four days that should end in a sprint and will suit the fast men.
Stage 2: Wimereux - Abbeville, 183.6 kilometers
Day two of the race will go through some rugged roads from Wimereux to Abbeville but they should not be overly hard to prevent a bunch sprint from taking place.
Stage 3: Saint-Laurent-Blangry - Bouchain, 166 kilometers
The third day of racing is perhaps the flattest of the race. Within 166 kilometers the riders go from Saint-Laurent-Blangry to Bouchain and the circuit finale will once again accommodate the fast men.
Stage 4: Mazingarbe - Pont-à-Marcq, 171.1 kilometers
Another pan-flat day in the race, the sprinters will be happy to find another short stage without any serious difficulties. This time around the finale will be in Pont-à-Marcq.
Stage 5: Arques - Cassel, 180.1 kilometers
After four days of racing on flat roads the race finale goes into it's queen stage. It is Cassel monster. This features plenty laps of a hilly circuit that features 1.9 kilometers at over 5%, and a cobbled 1.5-kilometer ascent that averages 4.5% and virtually coincides with the finish line.
Stage 6: Loon-Plage - Dunkerque, 179.4 kilometers
As was most of the race, on the final day the riders return to completely flat roads. After passing through most of the region, the riders finally return to Dunkerque where they will most likely find a bunch sprint once again.
Prediction overall classification 4 Jours de Dunkerque:
*** Kasper Asgreen, Casper van Uden
** Jenno Berckmoes, Riley Sheehan, Corbin Strong
* Milan Menten, Paul Penhoët, Alec Segaert, Anthony Turgis, Pierre Gautherat, Oliver Naesen, Nils Eekhoff, Arnaud Démare, Amaury Capiot
Pick: Casper van Uden

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
