Lorena Wiebes wins Flanders Diamond Tour
Chiara Consonni second and Amber van der Hulst third in Nijlen
Lorena Wiebes secured Team DSM their seventh win of the season at the Flanders Diamond Tour in Nijlen on Sunday. Wiebes won the bunch sprint ahead of Chiara Consonni (Valcar Travel & Service) and Amber van der Hulst (Parkhotel Valkenburg).
“Just like last week [Dwars door de Westhoek] we controlled the race and the girls were super strong,” said Wiebes in a team press release. “Franzi [Franziska Koch] closed the gap to the solo leader before we did a really good lead-out again. I’m really happy to be able to finish it off again and take the win.”
The women raced 136.6km across circuits with a start and finish in Nijlen. Each circuit included cobblestone sections.
Despite multiple attempts, the peloton remained together until the final sections of the race when Silke Smulders (Lotto Soudal) cleared the field in a solo breakaway with nearly a minute advantage. Smulders was caught by the chasing field inside the final 8km of the race.
Team DSM, SD Worx, Parkhotel Valkenburg and Valcar Travel & Services all moved to the front to set up their sprinters. Team DSM delivered Wiebes to the finish line after a three-kilometre lead-out where she started her sprint inside the final 150 metres and claimed the victory.

Cyclingnews is the world's leader in English-language coverage of professional cycling. Started in 1995 by University of Newcastle professor Bill Mitchell, the site was one of the first to provide breaking news and results over the internet in English. The site was purchased by Knapp Communications in 1999, and owner Gerard Knapp built it into the definitive voice of pro cycling. Since then, major publishing house Future PLC has owned the site and expanded it to include top features, news, results, photos and tech reporting. The site continues to be the most comprehensive and authoritative English voice in professional cycling.
