PREVIEW | Bredene Koksijde Classic 2023 - Sprint between Merlier, Molano, Welsford and Thijssen

Preview. It will be on the 17th of March that the peloton takes on the Bredene Koksijde Classic, one of the many Belgian semi-classics taking place over the course of the spring and one that is best suited to the sprinters.

The race, as the name suggests, takes place from Bredene to Koksijde. It's in West Flandres that the riders will be racing what should be a very exciting race, with bergs, cobblestones and quite likely strong winds. It's a race that goes through the Kemmelberg twice in the second third of the race, but then has a flat finale suited to the sprinters towards the end with a final circuit.

Start Time: 11:45CET.

Finish Time: 16:15CET.

*** Tim Merlier, Sam Welsford
** Juan Sebastián Molano, Gerben Thijssen, Edward Theuns
* Pascal Ackermann, Hugo Hofstetter, Kristoffer Halvorsen, Dan McLay, Matteo Malucelli, Jakub Mareczko

Pick: Tim Merlier
