After losing the Paris Roubaix, SD Worx team will want some payback. But now they also have Vollering to deal with, and Longho Borghini is back from injury in Flanders as well. Lots of climbing so it should favor the climbers. Winner of PR, Pauline, is sitting this one out.

So for now it was either MVDP or Pog in the big classics. MVDP is sitting this one out, but Pogacar is racing. He will battle Remco after his return from injury, and also Wout, who is coming into some good form. Lot's of climbing and hopefully and exciting race.
Notable riders: Pogacar...
Most of the women favorites are back racing the Amstel Gold. Can Cavalli repeat her last year's feat and win it? Can Vos repeat her 2021 victory? I'm sure SD Works will not want that to happen.
Notable rider: Cavalli, Vos, Van Anrooij, Van Vleuten, Vollering, Longo Borghini, Persico, Kopecky...
The roles are reversed. Pog is racing, Wout and MVDP are not. He is hot off of winning Tour of Flanders, but there are others to challenge him.
Last year it was Kwiatkowski, the former world champ, who won it in a head to head against Cosnefroy. The group with MVDP came in 20 seconds behind...
