De Panne: Gilbert wins overall; Kittel and Durbridge victorious on final day

After 16 years in the pro peloton, Philippe Gilbert collected his first overall victory in Driedaagse De Panne-Koksijde Thursday, which featured two stages around De Panne, Belgium. Gilbert’s Quick-Step teammate Marcel Kittel won stage 3a in the morning, and Orca-Scott’s Luke Durbridge won the stage 3b time trial by a fraction of a second later in the day.

“I’m happy it was a mistake,” the Australian Durbridge said with a laugh after the 14.2km time trial, referring to a timing gaffe that initially gave Sylvain Chavanel the victory. “I’m really happy; it’s been awhile since I had a victory, actually. It’s always really special.”

Kittel’s sprint win came despite a late crash in the 118.5km road stage that morning. “The moment I crashed, I said to myself, ‘It’s not the perfect situation, but it’s not impossible to make it back to the bunch,’ he said. “Even before going on the circuit we did a great job as a team, and after crashing, Jack [Bauer], Tim [Declerq], Davide [Martinelli], and Fabio [Sabatini] waited and helped me return to the peloton with five kilometers to go, where Max [Richese] and Saba [Sabatini] played an important role in bringing me in the best possible position.”

Alexander Kristoff (Katusha-Alpecin) was second in the stage 3a sprint, ahead of UAE-Abu Dhabi’s Sacha Modolo.

Gilbert finished safely in the bunch and then rode to seventh place in the short afternoon time trial, enough to claim the overall win by 38 seconds ahead of Austrian TT specialist Mathias Brandle (Trek-Segafredo) who was fifth in stage 3b. Kristoff rode a strong time trial to finish third in the overall.

“I think it’s one of the hardest ones I’ve done,” Durbridge added about the individual time trial. “This one was a slog. I died a thousand deaths on the way home.”

Like most of his fellow racers, Durbridge will head to Tour of Flanders Sunday, and for him, it will be a special day as his parents will travel from Australia to watch him race in Europe for their first time.

“There is no better preparation for the Tour of Flanders,” added the Belgian champion Gilbert, who returns to De Ronde after five years of focus on the Ardennes classics later in April.
