Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx-Protime) smashed the elite women's time trial to take the victory for a sixth consecutive year at the Belgian Road Championships.

“It is always nice to renew the Belgian title,” Kopecky told Wielerflits in a flash interview.

Kopecky, a multi-discipline road and track World Champion, covered the 19.3km course in a winning time of 25:57 in Binche, beating runner-up Marthe Goossens (AG Insurance-Soudal Team) by 43 seconds and third-placed Marion Norbert Riberolle (Fenix-Deceuninck Development Team) by 44 seconds.

“It was a nice course in itself, with good road conditions. But it was also very difficult," she said regarding the course. 

"There were some difficult parts: headwind, slightly ascending. So yes, it was a very nice time trial course. You could make the biggest difference in the second part of the course. The first part was very fast, with a number of descending parts, which made it difficult to really gain time. But the second part was really the most difficult.”

The elite women's field will compete in the 123km road race for the championship jersey in Zottegem on Sunday.
