Lucinda Brand fully lived up to pre-race expectations on a fast course at Gavere to claim her 10th win of a row of the 2025-2026 season and the 26th World Cup win of her career.
In a crash-riddled race, Brand went clear with more than half of the course to complete when closest pursuer Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Premier Tech) fell heavily, and the Baloise Glowi Lions leader steadily opened up her gap from there on.
By the finish, Brand led by a solid 15 seconds on up-and-coming French racer Amandine Fouquenet (Arkeá-B&B Hotels), with Pieterse putting in a tenacious comeback to claim third.
