E3 Saxo Classic 2023 - Race results

Harelbeke > Harelbeke, 202.1km

24.03

E3 Saxo Classic, first held in 1958 and long known as E3 Harelbeke, is one of the defining races of the Flemish spring and is often seen as a dress rehearsal for the Tour of Flanders. With its relentless sequence of short climbs and cobbled sectors, including icons such as the Taaienberg, Paterberg and Oude Kwaremont, the race consistently rewards explosive classics specialists. While the route has evolved over time, its core identity has remained unchanged, favouring aggressive racing and early selection rather than waiting for a sprint.
