A winner at
Omloop Het Nieuwsblad all the way back in 2012 when he edged out Tom Boonen and Juan Antonio Flecha. Eleven years on, Vanmarcke is confident he can repeat his success if he gets the chance. “In general, my form is quite ok, I may still miss some specific training sessions on explosiveness, but I can still compensate for that by sprinting up the slopes later.”
"I want to be good from Omloop to Roubaix,” Vanmarcke says.
“It opens perspectives for everyone that Wout van Aert and Mathieu van der Poel will skip the Omloop this year. At the same time, this also means that their teams will race more freely and openly.”
