Mathieu van der Poel (Beobank-Corendon) has recovered from a recent illness and will start the UCI World Cup in Heusden-Zolder on Boxing Day Tuesday, confirmed his father Adrie van der Poel in a report on Veldritkrant.be.
"We looked at it day by day," Adrie van der Poel said. "Mathieu starts in Zolder and there are no changes for the time being in the rest of his program."
Mathieu van der Poel was sick with a cold ahead of the World Cup in Namur on December 17. He struggled through the race but managed to finish third, losing over a minute to the day's winner Wout Van Aert (Crelan-Charles) and two seconds back from runner-up Toon Aerts (Telenet Fidea Lions).
