Flanders Tomorrow Tour, Mads Landbo Takes Overall Victory

Flanders Tomorrow Tour, Mads Landbo Takes Overall VictoryMads Landbo (Team Coloquick) has claimed the general classification of the Flanders Tomorrow Tour 2026. The Dane finished with a total time of 09:51:46, beating Joeri Schaper (Soudal Quick-Step Devo Team) by 23 seconds and Kasper Haugland (Decathlon Cma Cgm Development Team) by 38 seconds.The Belgian race, reserved for Under 23 teams, was decided in the hilly stages of the opening weekend. Landbo built his advantage in the queen stage, where he attacked on the Berendries climb and held the lead through to the final day, despite constant pressure from his direct rivals.In the classic bunch sprint on the finish line in Waregem, the peloton arrived together, but the Dane controlled the situation without taking any risks. His Team Coloquick sealed the race with a second rider in the mix, Otto Jølving, who finished fourth tied with Haugland (09:52:24), while Marius Innhaug Dahl (Decathlon Cma Cgm Development Team) rounded out the top five at 45 seconds.The final standings therefore show a clear dominance of the development teams, with Coloquick placing two riders in the top four. For Landbo, already a stage winner in this edition, this marks his first success in a stage race on the European calendar. The Dane displayed remarkable consistency, never losing contact on the flat sections and managing the climbs to perfection.Schaper's performance is also worth noting: he attempted on several occasions to make up ground in the final two stages, but had to settle for second place. Haugland, third, confirms the strong form of the Decathlon development squad, already a protagonist in other Belgian races.The race comes to a close with a positive balance sheet for the organisers, who put forward a course suited to young riders, featuring short but selective climbs and a finale made for attackers. Now Landbo can focus on the summer appointments, with the goal of confirming the qualities he has shown over the course of this week.
