"Even better victory than at the European championships" - Michael Vanthourenhout after beating Tom Pidcock in Overijse

Pauwels Sauzen-Bingoal rider Michael Vanthourenhout recorded his fourth win of this season in World Cup Overijse after a thrilling battle with CX world champion Tom Pidcock.

“This was an even better victory than at the European championships,” Vanthourenhout said in the post-race interview. He continues, “It was really close with Tom, and maybe I was a little bit better in the technical sections but it was really hard to follow him in the uphill. It was a really good battle.”

After a tense back-and-forth battle, he managed to escape from Pidcock in the last lap. “In the last two laps I pushed very hard but I saw Tom come very close. But I didn’t make any mistakes. It was difficult, but very beautiful,” concluded Vanthourenhout.
