Graafschap's Remarkable Achievement

Outstanding Performance
Lavreysen outperformed reigning champion Jeffrey Hoogland, who was edged out in the finals. Previously, in the qualifiers, Lavreysen achieved the fastest time among all participants, recording 57.468 seconds.
Transforming His Competition Strategy
Surprisingly, this year Lavreysen opted to compete in multiple events, diverging from his usual selection of the team sprint, sprint, and keirin.
