Cyclisme : Vermeersch expects Pogačar's signature flair at Omloop Het Nieuwsblad

Tadej Pogačar prepares for the Strade Bianche with confidence, according to teammate Florian Vermeersch. Despite a new route that cuts 16 kilometers of gravel and shortens the race by 10 kilometers, Vermeersch believes Pogačar will maintain his aggressive style. "Starting with Tadej means we always race for the win," he asserts. Vermeersch emphasizes that the essence of the race remains unchanged, likening Strade Bianche to a war of attrition. He anticipates fierce competition in the final stages, where the best riders will battle for supremacy. With Pogačar's track record as a three-time winner, expectations soar for the upcoming challenge. The stage is set for fireworks this Saturday as the cycling world watches closely.
