Updated: Read our Women’s race report for the full story of Cant’s 100th career win

Updated x2: Get the story of Mathieu van der Poel’s latest dominant win

Kerstperiode racing continued on Tuesday with the annual Boxing Day race in Heusden-Zolder. Held at the Circuit Zolder motor speedway, conditions at World Cup Zolder were relatively dry and tacky —at least for Belgium in December — leading to fast racing throughout the afternoon.

In the Women’s race, Sanne Cant (Beobank-Corendon) again outdueled Katie Compton (KFC Racing p/b Trek/Knight Composites) late in the race to take the win. Eva Lechner (Clif Pro Team) finished behind Compton in third.

Mathieu van der Poel (Beobank-Corendon) had been suffering from a severe cold for the past week and had to withdraw from Saturday’s race in Sint-Niklaas. On Tuesday, he showed little signs of the illness. Van der Poel rode away from Wout van Aert (Crelan-Charles) in the fourth lap and soloed for the rest of the race to take the win. Laurens Sweeck (ERA-Circus) finished strong to top Van Aert in the last lap for second.

Full results from both races are below. Stay tuned for full reports and photos.
