Arnaud De Lie (Lotto-Dstny) succeeds

Two days after his victory in the round of Coupe de France, Arnaud De Lie is once again making the powder talk, this time at home, in the 9th round of the Belgian Cup.

The Tour of Leuven has been quite successful for the riders of the Lotto-Dstny, since the previous winner was none other than Victor Campenaerts...

The 193 kilometers of this 57th edition were run at a very high speed (more than 43 km/hour). At the start of the race, a breakaway takes its distance but the Belgian sprinter's teammates keep watch. At 40 kilometers from the finish, it was finally taken back before a group of 10 strong men broke away in the various "tapes-cul" of the course. Well led by a gala "Campi", Arnaud De Lie sprints his opponents in the last 20 meters and offers himself a 7th bouquet this season.

The Lotto Dsnty achieves a nice group shot with 4 riders in the TOP 10: (De Lie, Campenaerts, Peyskens and Livyns). Axel Zingle (Cofidis) finished 4th, Giacomo Nizzolo 10th.
