The 2026 edition of the Tour of Flanders will take place on Sunday, April 5, and it promises to be a special one. The start list features both Tadej Pogacar and Mathieu van der Poel, as well as a resurgent Wout van Aert, who looks stronger than last year, and debutant Remco Evenepoel. It will be the first time since the 2023 UCI Road World Championships in Glasgow that they face each other in a one-day race.
