Michael Vanthourenhout wins Cyclocross World Cup overall, hopes Belgians sweep podium at Worlds

The rivals of Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) admitted that he was ‘too strong’ on Sunday, the Dutchman riding away to take a dominant victory in the final World Cup round at Hoogerheide.

Michael Vanthourenhout (Pauwels Sauzen-Cibel Clementines) was left chasing alone and finished 1:42 behind Van der Poel in second place. However, Vanthourenhout was the most consistent rider in all 11 rounds of the World Cup, winning two early races, and on Sunday secured the series title. But five times Van der Poel raced in World Cups and impressed with victories in all five starts.
