He further adds, "It was very tough. But with all the crowd in the famous Kuil, it was super nice. We could enjoy it, even more, today, because we dove into the Kuil an extra time per lap. I myself also liked the long-running phase uphill, but this is definitely more spectacular."

Wout van Aert's victory at the Zonhoven World Cup is his eighth win of the season and his third consecutive victory this week, boosting his confidence as he prepares for the World Championship.
