Fem van Empel (Jumbo-Visma) claimed a dominant victory at Superprestige Boom, soloing clear on the second lap to beat rival Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck) by just over a minute, while Annemarie Worst (Team 777) was the best of the rest in third.
The emphatic nature of Van Empel’s win was all the more remarkable considering her relatively sluggish opening lap on a course that demanded particular thought given the treacherous conditions.
