On the 28th March the riders will take on the single best warm-up race ahead of the Tour of Flanders. The
E3 Saxo Classic has gained a reputation of it's own as one of the toughest one-day races in the World Tour calendar, and this year it will once again be the only race where Mathieu van der Poel and Wout van Aert will meet ahead of Flanders.
The
prize money in total for the race will be a total of €40.000. This will be split between the first 20 riders crossing the line, taking into consideration that the winner will win €16.000.
