Sprinters vs attackers on the Kemmelberg –Analysing the contenders for In Flanders Fields

Cobbled Classics season is now in full swing, with one of the most prestigious races on the spring calendar, In Flanders Fields (a.k.k Gent-Wevelgem), holding its 88th edition (13th for the women's race) on Sunday.
