UCI cyclocross worlds 2022 are this coming weekend.
I didn't watch the men's races this past weekend, but I did watch the women's races.
The only rider to beat Lucinda Brand in a half dozen races is Marianne Vos. Even then, it's only on relatively flat and fast courses.
The Hoogerheide race was an exceptional battle for the last two laps. Puck Pieterse burned a few matches to try to shake both of them. She burnt Lucinda Brand off the back but was towing a Vos, who looked comfortable. Then, as Puck was fading and Lucinda was coming back, Vos attacked and got 10 seconds. Neither Pieterse or Brand could come back. Vos won the race and was sucking air.
We'll see what happens next weekend on a fast course.
Pidcock should be the favorite for the men on a fast course, I think.
