Strong form Lars van der Haar crowned with silver following close call at World Championships. January began with a seventh place finish at the Grand Prix Sven Nys for Team Giant-Alpecin’s Lars van der Haar (NED), followed by a strong second place at the Dutch Nationals, a third place at the penultimate World Cup round in Lignieres-en-Berry and a seventh place at Hoogerheid, the World Cup closer.
The racing month of January was finished by a close call at the World Championships as van der Haar took the silver medal in Heusden-Zolder.
“January has been a nice month for me which I've been working towards,” said van der Haar. “I took three second places on the Nationals, the final World Cup ranking and the Worlds. Obviously I hoped for more, but I gave my all and I am proud that my performance peaked at the World Championships. For February I hope to finish the cyclo-cross season with some strong results and ideally with another victory."
