Timothy Dupont won a historic race when he beat Colombian Gaviria and Dutchman Kreder on 16 September 2016. This was the 101st outing for the Flanders Championship in Koolskamp. This makes the West Flanders race older than the Tour of Flanders. It was no coincidence that the winner, Dupont, was a fast youngster.
