Mathieu van der Poel a continué sur sa lancée en s’adjugeant la 11e des 14 manches de la Coupe du monde de cyclocross à Hulst, samedi aux Pays-Bas. Le Néerlandais a été le seul membre du « Big Three », réuni pour la 3e fois de la saison, à jouer les premiers rôles dans ce dernier cross de l’année 2023. Le Britannique Tom Pidcock a été retardé après avoir chuté dès le premier virage et Wout van Aert a lui chuté et déraillé dans le 2e tour.

Le champion du monde a lui fait la course en tête et s’est imposé devant son public avec 12 secondes et 20 secondes d’avance sur ses compatriotes Joris Nieuwenhuis et Lars van der Haar.

Wout van Aert a signé une belle remontée pour finir 5e et premier Belge à 43 secondes, devant Laurens Sweeck, 6e à 53 secondes.

Mathieu van der Poel, qui avait déjà dominé Van Aert et Pidcock à Anvers et Gavere, a décroché samedi sa 7e victoire dans les labourés en sept cross disputés cette saison. Il s’est imposé pour la 6e fois à Hulst après 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021 et 2022.

Les spécialistes se retrouveront le 1er janvier à Baal pour le GP Sven Nys, 4e manche du Trophée X2O. Wout van Aert et Mathieu van der Poel seront présents, mais pas Tom Pidcock. Les trois cadors se retrouveront une dernière fois cette saison dans les labourés le 4 janvier à Coxyde (Trophée X2O). Des trois ténors, seul van der Poel, tenant du titre, a inscrit les Mondiaux de Tabor à son programme début février.
