Wout van Aert has withdrawn from the Jumbo Visma recon ride for Tour of Flanders as he is feeling unwell.
It is unclear if he may have Covid-19 or another illness, but Jumbo Visma has said he is unlikely to ride Sunday's race, which would be a major blow for both the team and the race.

“Unfortunately Wout is not joining us for the recon ride today," said Jumbo Visma directeur sportif Grischa Niermann. "Unfortunately he's not feeling really fit and he's staying at home for that reason. We have to do it at least today without him.
“If we only miss him today for the recon ride it wouldn't be too bad, but of course we have to admit that now there's a chance he will miss the race.”
More to come.
