Iserbyt, however, did not start well at the Cross in Brussels. He quickly puts things in order and immediately puts the others under pressure. In his wheel: Aerts and Sweeck. Aerts is his first pursuer in the rankings and takes over immediately, but after a fall his cross is over. Vanthourenhout sees his chance clean and takes the hare path. Teammate Iserbyt thinks it is enough and lets the rest do the work.
Former Dutch Champion Nieuwenhuis does not yet give up and uses the chase. In the fourth of nine rounds he also comes to the West Flanders. After a nice duel, Vanthourenhout wins the last moto of the X20. Iserbyt is still pretty fourth.
