Team SD Worx - Protime will be notable by their absence at Classic Brugge-De Panne after their sports manager, Danny Stam revealed the team will skip the race.
"It is a big shame that we have to skip this classic," Stam explains in a post to the official social media page of the team. "Especially because of the crash in Danilith Nokere Koerse, some riders are still suffering from injuries now. With a few days of extra rest, they can recover fully again towards the big classic appointments scheduled in the coming weeks."
One of those who is suffering from injuries is Lorena Wiebes, who as Stam mentions, would've been their big hope at Classic Brugge-De Panne if they'd have opted to race.
"Lorena Wiebes was one of those victims in Nokere. Normally she would have been our spearhead in the Classic Brugge-De Panne," Stam concludes. "We hope to be able to start at full strength again Sunday in Gent-Wevelgem and compete for the win there again."
