Van der Poel's performance was marked by his ability to overcome late mistakes and maintain a strong lead. He was followed by Michael Vanthourenhout, who took second place, and Thibau Nys, who overcame his own struggles to finish third.
In another notable event, Wout van Aert's debut in the cyclocross season was marred by an incident with a spectator during the final lap, which denied him a chance at the podium. This incident highlights the unpredictable nature of cyclocross racing.
