Lighting the Touch Paper RVV22-11
Annemiek Van Vleutin (Movistar) who had won this race last year, knew that the Kruisberg was going to be a good place to put in her attack for victory. Last year no one was able to hold her wheel and she rode the remaining 28 kilometers alone to victory. This year however, she may have dropped Grace Brown (FDJ Nouvelle-Aquitaine Futuroscope) but Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx) was stuck to the Dutch woman's wheel. There were still a few women up the road, but looking at this duo, the others weren't going to be leading the race for much longer.
