PS: Mostly copied from last year :cool: You know this race. The oldest classic, the sprinter's classic, except when it's not. Will Pogacar, MVDP, Laporte, Ganna and other all rounders manager to drop the sprinters on the Poggior or not? Will Mohoric try on the descent again? Time will tell...

The best non-monument race, which should by now be a monument. It's always exciting and hard racing, with lots of gravel and climbing. Pogacar is returning to defend his 2022 win, while Wout and MVDP, the two elite off road riders, don't want to race on gravel it seems. Also Pidcock is return to...

Basically comes just after Omloop, with mostly the same protagonists. In the past even sprinters could win, bu usually it's the stong riders. So it's a double weekend for Wout and company. Notable mentions: Wout, Philipsen, De Lie, Mohoric, Laporte, Benoot, Demare, Kristoff, Wellens, Trentin...

The first of the big classics. Cobblestones, steep climbs, crazy fans, what's not to like. A big test for Wout, but MVDP is waiting for San Remo for his start of the season. Notable mentions: Wout, Philipsen, De Lie, Mohoric, Laporte, Pidcock, Benoot, Kung, Alaphilippe, Wellens, Trentin...

The old gang is back, fresh from Flanders, minus Pog. Wout and MVDP will battle it out again, but this time without the nasty climbs they will have a lot more competition on the cobbles. Last year it was Dylan van Baarle who won it in a daring solo, winning by almost 2 minutes ahead of Wout and...

The old gang is back, fresh from E3 race. Wout, Pog and MVDP will battle it out again. Can anyone stop Wout winning this? Last year it was MVDP who rode with Pogacar to the line and outsrpinted him. Notable all-rounder: Pogacar, Wout, MVDP, Powless, Kung, Laporte, Pidckock, Teuns, Girmay...

The old gang is back, fresh from Milano Sanremo. Wout, Pog and MVDP (and Ganna) will battle it out again. Can anyone stop the savage power of MVDP? Last year it was Wout and his pal Laporte who did a 1-2 for jumbo Visma. Notable all-rounder: Pogacar, Wout, MVDP, Kung, Laporte, Girmay, Ganna...

Let the hype begin! It's a showdown between Pog and Vinge, before their real showdown at the TDF. But there's also a lot of other talent here. Also notable is the TTT of 32 km, where stronger teams will take a lot of time. Notable GC mentions: Pogacar, Vingegaard, Martinez, Skjelmose, Powless...
