Mads Pedersen claims Gent-Wevelgem for third time
Danish cyclist Mads Pedersen won Gent-Wevelgem on Sunday at the end of a 55-kilometre solo burst, adding to his previous victories at the classic in 2020 and 2024.
The Lidl-Trek rider finished well ahead of Belgian Tim Merlier in second, with Jonathan Milan of Italy completing the podium.
The victory put Pedersen in elite company as he joins Robert Van Eenaeme, Rik Van Looy, Eddy Merckx, Mario Cipollini, Tom Boonen and Peter Sagan on the list of three-time winners of Gent-Wevelgem.
