VIDEO: Highlights from an incredibly dramatic day in Hulst as Pidcock & Van Aert crash before victorious Van der Poel spits at spectators

Wow. One of if not the most dramatic day of racing this cyclocross season. If you missed out on any of the drama-packed day in Hulst or just want a refresher... We've got you covered!

A meeting between the so-called 'Big 3' of cyclocross, Mathieu van der Poel, Wout van Aert and Tom Pidcock is always a spectacle. None of the three superstars had the best of days on Saturday afternoon however.

Firstly, Pidcock was caught up in a crash within the first few hundred metres, breaking his bike and forcing him out of race-winning contention. Then, Wout van Aert's hopes of victory also came crashing down shortly after.

That left Mathieu van der Poel free to take another dominant victory, however, even the world champion was not free from controversy as on the final lap, he slowed next to some fans who had been booing him all day (and allegedly thrown urine, although at time of writing no proof of this has emerged ed.), spitting into the crowd and sending social media into a frenzy.
