Is spring finally in the air for Visma-Lease a Bike? After a bleak winter in which the team have faced multiple setbacks all the way through to Wout van Aert falling ill before Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and co-leader Matthew Brennan crashing out of the same race, the British sprinter has now bounced back with a vengeance with a stunning victory in Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne.
The first British winner of the Belgian semi-classic since a certain Mark Cavendish 11 years ago, Brennan came into Sunday's race with his left side bruised and battered after hitting the deck at Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and ending the race in the team car.
