In Zonhoven, in the World Cup, the world champion dominates. And coach Pontoni’s Azzurrini also win

Mathieu Van der Poel doesn’t even fight in Zonhoven, Belgium, where the cross-country World Cup was staged today: without Van Aert, injured, no one managed to worry the 30-year-old Dutchman from Alpecin, with his ninth success of the season in nine matches. Of the last 34 outings in the specialty, he has won 33. But in the meantime, in the youth races, two beautiful blue smiles are worth mentioning: among the juniors, the European champion Filippo Grigolini and Giorgia Pellizotti, the daughter of former pro Franco, won.
