Jungels does it again
Following Zdeněk Štybar’s win at Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, the Luxembourg pro sealed a perfect weekend for the Belgian team of Deceuninck – Quick-Step. Last year, Quick-Step already had an impressive 13 wins at this time of the season, in 2019, however, they have already bagged 16.
Similarly to his winning attack at last year’s Liège-Bastogne-Liège, Bob Jungels attacked with roughly 18 km to go. With many Deceuninck – Quick-Step riders in the chasing group, the real poursuivants stood no chance. In the end, Owain Doull managed to take second place, while Niki Terpstra claimed third.
