Overview
- Remco Evenepoel, who won Sunday, beat defending champion Mattias Skjelmose in a two-man sprint at the Dutch classic.
- The race split when Romain Grégoire attacked with about 40 kilometers left, drawing out Evenepoel and Skjelmose.
- Moments later Kevin Vauquelin slid out in a corner, sending Matteo Jorgenson to the ground and forcing him to abandon.
- Benoît Cosnefroy secured third place by pipping Grégoire in the chase group’s sprint.
- The victory was his first major one-day since the 2024 Olympic title and his 74th career win, setting up a Liège–Bastogne–Liège test that is set to include Tadej Pogacar and 19-year-old Paul Seixas next weekend.
