Anteprima Handzame Classic 2017

La Handzame Classic 2017, di scena venerdì 17  marzo, è la quindicesima edizione di una corsa in linea belga nata nel 2002 e ora classificata 1.1 dall’Uci. Il primo vincitore fu Johan Museeuw, l’ultimo lo slovacco Erik Baska. Due gli italiani che sono riusciti ad imporsi in questa gara: Danilo Napolitano nel 2009 e Francesco Chicchi nel 2012.

 Differita su Eurosport 2 alle ore 23.30.

 Siamo nelle Fiandre Occidentali. Handzame, parte del municipio di Kortemark, è la sede d’arrivo di questa corsa che prende il via da Bredene. Sono 199 i km in programma, con il percorso che rimane immutato rispetto alle ultime edizioni. Un percorso che, nonostante qualche strappetto e qualche breve tratto in pavé, finirà verosimilmente con il premiare i velocisti. Qui l’altimetria, in basso informazioni sulla startlist.
