Wout van Aert (born 15 September 1994 in Herentals) is a professional road and cyclo-cross racer from Belgium, best known for winning the men's elite race at the UCI Cyclo-cross World Championships in 2016,[1] 2017 and 2018.
Career
Road
Van Aert rode the 2018 Strade Bianche, held partly on gravel roads in torrential rain. He broke away with Romain Bardet (AG2R La Mondiale) and the pair lead the race for much of the final 40km before Tiesj Benoot (Lotto–Soudal) attacked from a chasing group to catch and then drop them in the final sector of dirt roads. Benoot soloed to victory by 39 seconds ahead of Bardet,[2] who dropped van Aert in the final kilometre; van Aert ultimately completed the podium a further 19 seconds in arrears, despite having to remount his bicycle after falling on the final climb in Siena.
