Location: De Panne
Time: 14m58.2s
Result: 9th
Not bad considering his name hadn't been mentioned at all during the three previous days of racing. Unfortunately, VDB is still up and down. For instance he was dropped yesterday after less than 100k at Flanders. Taking into consideration the great fluxuations in his performances, he will probably win next weekend at Roubaix. And you know what, I would be more than happy with that.
