After last week's win in the Druivencross, Mathieu van der Poel was expected to challenge Wout van Aert in today's Superprestige race in Spa but for the first time since his comeback he missed the top 10.
“It was miserable today. I’m disappointed. It seemed like I couldn’t ride my bike today. It’s massively frustrating. Maybe last weekend was too good so I expected too much of this race,” Van der Poel told Telenet Play & Sports.
"It sucked nothing today. It seemed like I could not ride a bike. This is obviously only one race but it is extremely frustrating. Last weekend it was still good, perhaps my expectations were a bit high for today."
