CyclingSaturday, 15 June 2024 at 19:53
The Baloise Belgium Tour is scheduled from June 12th to 16th and is widely regarded as a premier preparation race for the Tour de France, especially favored by sprinters and classics riders. Let's preview Stage 5.
The race ends in the Belgium capital of Brussel. It's a day that should end in a sprint, although the finale definitely isn't pan-flat and not only the sprinters, but the GC contenders have to be at the very front to avoid losing something they have won the previous days.
Stage 5: Brussel - Brussel, 186.2 kilometers
Prediction Baloise Belgium Tour 2024 stage 5:
*** Jasper Philipsen, Tim Merlier
** Olav Kooij, Gerben Thijssen
* Fabio Jakobsen, Timothy Dupont, Luca Mozzato, Sasha Weemaes, Soren Waerenskjold, Mathias Vacek, Alex Aranburu, Pierre Gautherat, Lionel Taminiaux, Mike Teunissen
Pick: Tim Merlier

- tom is still only 25. yeah, some years have been squandered, but perhaps there’s time to right the ship. the problem though is figuring out exactly what he should be targeting. GC? while pog, jonas and remco are all in their prime? probably not. classics? with another 5+ years of mathieu, wout, pog, remco, etc? so, stages? yeah, IF he can embrace that role, but it still seems like he doesnt see that as lofty enough.OCexile05-12-2024
- Christian Vande Velde - the pool of optimism!

- There's no guarantees in life ! Anything can happen in or out of a bike race to change your fortunes if you're basing your whole year on the TdF. Sure you can reduce the odds in your favor but you only live once...go for it!frieders304-12-2024
- If racing the Giro is a big risk , all preparatory races will fall under the same category since no race is risk free. As seen from Remco even Training is not risk free. Vandevelde sometimes talks crapabstractengineer04-12-2024

- I once worked for an employer that was so good at putting people off staying we started a social group for ex-employees which grew and grew until it was larger than the workforce. 20 years on we still meet up to laugh about things back then. I see an opportunity here ;-)Mistermaumau04-12-2024

- It’s something to take into consideration, the Giro is one of the more dangerous events. But, there’s also the fact that one day TP will have another crash. It used to be so much easier to decide what to race and what not :-)Mistermaumau04-12-2024
- Courageous and wise and good for you but someone else will, that’s the nature of capitalism, and then someone will accept less than the minimum and then someone will do it as an internship an then someone will do it voluntarily for the chance and after we’ll be back toa form of emotional slavery ;-)Mistermaumau04-12-2024
