Cyclisme : Lorena Wiebes Dominates Again, Seizing Third Straight Wevelgem Title

Lorena Wiebes (SD Worx-Protime) claims her third consecutive victory at In Flanders Fields in Wevelgem. This year, she outpaces a select group of five after a fierce sprint. An attack from Silvia Persico (UAE Team ADQ) on the Baneberg sets the stage, leading to a breakaway of 14 riders. Wiebes dominates the Kemmelberg, leaving only Elise Chabbey (FDJ United-Suez), Eleonora Gasparrini (UAE Team ADQ), Fleur Moors (Lidl-Trek), and Karlijn Swinkels (UAE Team ADQ) in her wake. The chase group falls behind, and Wiebes battles through the final kilometers. With 3.8km to go, Gasparrini makes a move, forcing Wiebes to chase but ultimately, she pulls away to seal the victory. Moors closes in but finishes behind. Vittoria Guazzini (FDJ United-Suez) takes sixth in the bunch sprint, 17 seconds later. Wiebes showcases her strength and strategy, solidifying her status as a top contender.
