Mathieu van der Poel has scored his first win of the cyclocross season in the UCI World Cup Hulst. He beat Tom Pidcock and secured the victory.
Lars van der Haar had a nice start, but it didn’t take Mathieu van der Poel to take the lead. Van der Poel made a small mistake and lost the lead to Tom Pidcock. Laurens Sweeck and van der Haar were trying their best to stay at the front, but it was proving a big challenge for them.
This time it was Pidcock who made a mistake, and van der Poel used it to his advantage and was once again in the lead. He gained a lead of 10 seconds over Pidcock in the next two laps. The situation became worse for Pidcock as he faced a mechanical problem in the last lap and abandoned the race.

maria2024202422-11-2024 - It happens all to often. My crashes over time have yielded a broken neck, broken back, broken left leg, crush pelvis, three broken collarbones, broken right arm and I've even lost a rib. Somehow I still train and do some races every year, mainly time trials these days.awp22-11-2024
