Van Avermaet In Pole Position For Classics

After an impressive showing at last week’s Tour of Oman, Greg Van Avermaet heads into this weekend’s opening Classics races brimming with both form and confidence. Though he failed to win a stage in the Sultanate, the Team CCC rider was competitive throughout, bagging two top-five placings in contrasting stages.

On stage four he was second in a bunch sprint, a whisker behind BahrainMerida sprinter Sonny Colbrelli, while the previous day he was third at the top of the tough climb at Qurrayat, behind overall winner Alexey Lutsenko.
