Tom Pidcock flew past Wout Van Aert on the home straight of the Flanders Classic la Fleche brabanconne for his first win at Ineos since turning professional in February. The 21-year-old Briton outlasted the field on an energy-sapping course where Italy's Matteo Trentin came third. Van Aert and Pidcock had the lead on the field with the younger man lurking at the Jumbo rider's wheel over the final 200m. "I waited and waited and when Wout went, I kind of got a little boxed in and then rushed and came past him," Pidcock said at the line. bnl/dmc/lp
