Speaking seconds after the race the winner Remco Evenepoel said: “This was my main goal. I really wanted to win this title. It’s the most important for me. I also wanted to win for Belgium. It’s emotional to do it for Igor [Decraene] who won this race five years ago and is no longer with us. From km 10 on I rode as hard as possible… it’s nice when the hard work pays off.”

Die Deutschen Michel Heßmann und Jakob Gesnner erzielten die guten Plätze 4 und 13 in der Weltelite.
