Er stond in het zand van Mol geen maat op Mathieu van der Poel. De wereldkampioen ging al na drie ronden solo en reed Wout van Aert, die tweede werd, op meer dan een minuut. Van der Poel ging zelfs zo hard te keer dat slechts 10 renners de finish bereikten!

“Ik voelde me super goed en vind dat ik vooral heel goed en foutloos door het zand reed”, vertelde Van der Poel in het flashinteview. “Dan maak je snel het verschil. Ik heb mijn rondjes ook goed ingedeeld. Ik heb me geamuseerd vandaag.”

Dat hij iedereen buiten de top-10 uit koers reed, relativeert hij. “Het was een kort en snel rondje, dan wordt die 80% regel snel toegepast. Ik had een goed gevoel, ik reed een goed tempo zonder over de limiet te gaan.”

Van der Poel

Van der Poel won niet enkel de Superprestige in Mol, maar ook het eerste duel met zijn eeuwige rivaal. “Dat leeft bij de mensen meer dan bij ons. Zeker voor Wout. Hij heeft ook al een paar keer aangegeven dat de winter bijzaak is. Hij is niet in topvorm. Het is logisch en slim wat hij doet.”

“Ik sluit zeker niet uit dat hij het mij in sommige crossen nog heel lastig gaat maken. Wout zal ongetwijfeld ook nog een paar crossen winnen, daar ben ik zeker van”, aldus Mathieu van der Poel.

Het bericht Wout van Aert na demonstratie Van der Poel: ‘Ik ben blij dat ik nog op tijd binnen was, haha’ verscheen eerst op Wieler Revue.
