March 1, 2026 · The Guardian

Visma-Lease-a-bike sprinter Matthew Brennan secured victory in the Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, becoming the first British rider to win the race since Mark Cavendish in 2015.

The 20-year-old British rider rocketed out of an accelerating pack to claim the win on Sunday.

Brennan, from Darlington, achieved the historic result in the Flemish classic, drawing comparisons to Cavendish's style, though he avoided dwelling on the comparison post-race.
