The cobbled Classics continue with Ghent-Wevelgem being the next race that goes over the rough stuff in Belgium in 2021 with the race taking place on Sunday (March 28).

Given the relatively flat finish to the race, teams often allocate leadership to two riders: a Classics specialist and a sprinter. The Classics riders are there if the race splits up due to cobbles, climbs or crosswinds, and the sprinters are present to contest a mass finish should the peloton stay together.
