Gent-Wevelgem 2021

Gent-Wevelgem is often referred to as a sprinters classic. But the reality is that it takes a versatile rider to win this prestigious race over the hills of the Heuvelland and windy plains of the Westhoek. Gent-Wevelgem pays a tribute to the brave who fought for their country during WWI.

The main favorites for the 2021 edition were: Wout Van Aert, Tim Merlier, Alexander Kristoff, Christophe Laporte and Arnaud Démare.
