Felipe Orts did not have his best race in the Zonhoven World Cup. The rider from Alicante had a bad start and, although he climbed up positions running at a very good pace, he could not go beyond the 19th position in a race that, of course, ended up being won by Mathieu van der Poel.
Not finishing at the top did not prevent Orts from enjoying, and a lot, one of the mythical circuits of the world cyclocross, especially in the brutal descent of 'De Kuil', the sand bowl with a tremendous slope surrounded by spectators.
This is how the Spanish champion described his experience in his 'X' account:
"One of those sensations that every cyclocrosser must experience! Descending the "De Kuil" at full speed, not knowing very well what is going to happen and listening to the deafening screaming of the stadium. They are not circuits, they are cathedrals!"

Una de esas sensaciones que todo ciclocrossista debe vivir✅! Descender el "De Kuil" a toda velocidad, 💨sin saber muy bien que va a pasar🫣 y escuchando el ensordecedor griterío del estadio💥🤯 No son circuitos, son catedrales 🇧🇪 📸@yefrifotos @forts_team 💛
