Cyclo-cross World Championships 2025 – Analysing the contenders

Mathieu Van der Poel has the history books in his sights as he bids to equal the long-standing record of Eric De Vlaeminck at this weekend’s Cyclo-cross World Championships in Liévin, northern France.

The legendary Belgian star won seven elite men’s CX world titles between 1966 and 1973, six of those in succession. However, Van der Poel stands poised on six world titles and is the heavy favourite to match the historic record 10 years after claiming his first elite rainbow jersey at the age of 20.
