Dutch rider Inge Van Der Heijden won the eighth and final Superprestige Cyclocross event for women elite in Middelkerke (Belgium). Attacking from the first lap, the winner was able to hold off the comeback of World Cup leader Lucinda Brand, who had previously caught and passed Sara Casasola, with the Italian rider having stayed on Van Der Heijden's wheel for more than half the race.

This marks the first victory for Inge Van Der Heijden, who narrowly beats vice world champion Brand by a handful of seconds, with third place going to our Casasola, securing her second consecutive podium after Maldegem last Wednesday.
