Pidcock mixing it with the big boys this weekend. Round about 15th yesterday, but 4th today! Watched it on Belgian TV and the commentators were suitably impressed, although not entirely surprised. I was glad to see it’s not just my disks that squeal - Pidcock was making a right old racket.

Van der Poel was in imperious form. Won both at a canter. Today, Toon Aerts slightly hesitated on a corner and that was it. VDP was gone.

21st victory on the spin for Van der Poel yesterday. Last Sunday he managed to hit a marshal, but still was in no danger. Yesterday he hit the barriers early on and lost 30 seconds. Still managed to smoke the entire field.

Last season he’d have likely lost those types of races, but he now knows he’s so much better than everyone else that he doesn’t care about any setbacks.

Pidcock was 8th, finishing behind iserbyt for the first time in a while.

Ben Turner won the U23 race.
