Alec Segaert emerges as a serious contender for the podium at the upcoming Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix. The young Belgian cyclist is making waves with his signature late attacks, reminiscent of legends like Fabian Cancellara. Already a WorldTour winner in a time trial and a three-time under-23 European ITT Champion, Segaert is rapidly gaining confidence and skill.
Bahrain Victorious sports director Michał Gołaś praises his progress, noting, "He's already improved quite a lot. His endurance is great, and he can make a huge difference." Segaert's recent performances at Nokere Koerse and GP de Denain showcase his ability to execute late moves, including a narrow solo victory and a near-miss finish.
In a thrilling chase at In Flanders Fields, Segaert nearly caught cycling heavyweights Mathieu van der Poel and Wout van Aert. With just 6km remaining, he launched a bold attack, showcasing his determination and tactical prowess. As the Classics season heats up, eyes are on Segaert as he seeks to cement his status in the sport.
