A great Thibau Nys stamps his mark on the Elite Cyclocross World Cup race in Benidorm, Spain. The European champion seized the moment in the final lap, giving his all to shake off his opponents. Eli Iserbyt and Wout Van Aert (not at his best today) mounted a determined and fierce chase, but Nys' action was so explosive that it left no room for his pursuers. A well-deserved success for the young Nys, who beats Iserbyt, Van Der Haar, and a tired Van Aert.
