Race analysis, favourites, and predictions for Binck Bank Tour 2019

The first five stages of this year's Binck Bank Tour are flat and seem to be designed to end up in a bunch sprint, while the GC will be decided in the last two days. On the penultimate day, an individual time trial will put everyone in their place, while the wavy profile of the flemish classic of the last stage (with two climbs to the Kapelmuur included) will surely bring us some final script turn.

Normally, Belgian and Dutch riders tend to stand out in a race that will undoubtedly be marked by the memory of the young cyclist Bjorn Lambrecht, who died tragically this week in the Tour de Pologne. From Cycling Fantasy we join the condolences to the family, friends, teammates and the whole international pelotón.
