Mathieu van der Poel’s stellar streak since his return to racing continued on Wednesday after the Dutchman powered to glory in Dwars door Vlaanderen three years after he won his first ever WorldTour event in the same race. The Dutchman from Alpecin-Fenix zipped clear of Belgium’s Tiesj Benoot (Jumbo-Visma) on the home straight in Waregem to take his second win on only his seventh day of racing in 2022.
