Wout van Aert returned to cyclocross yesterday. As the first of the 'big three' starting his season, he naturally captured a lot of attention from fans and analysts altogether.
Paul Herygers, a vocal voice of the sport, shared his opinions on the Belgian.
"His condition will probably be okay at the moment, but he is not yet at his maximum. You can tell from everything that this is not his main goal, but you can also go far if there is no pressure," Paul Herygers said in words to Sporza. "That defeat at the Cyclocross World Championships bothered Van Aert. If he had won there, he would have stuck to his familiar formula."
