Tom Boonen will lead Quick Step at Wednesday’s 203km semi-classic Dwars door Vlaanderen, the first Belgian cobblestoned race of the season.
“We’re coming to the start with a proven, competitive squad,” sports director Wilfried Peeters said. “Dwars door Vlaanderen is the first in a number of important races in which we want to stand out. Boonen is showing good signs of growth, as is Steegmans, who won at Nokere. We’re also expecting high-level performaces from the rest of the team; this is a race for major players.”
