After a first loop of 76.8 km, the runners will enter a local circuit of 22.6 km to be repeated 5 times. On the menu for each tour, three climbs: the Col du Hortilin (1.7 km at 3.7%), the Trieu-Knokteberg coast (1 km at 7.9%) and a final rampaillon towards the Mont-de- the Enclus where the finish will be judged.
Biniyam Girmay will also be there after his 7th places at Paris-Chauny and at the Wallonia GP. Among the other foreign runners to follow we will also mention the French Anthony Turgis Bryan Coquard, Axel Zingle et Nacer Bouhannithe Norwegians Soren Waerenskjold et Tobias JohannessenDutch Mike Teunissen or even the Dane Kasper Asgreen.
But apart from Philipsen and De Lie, Belgium will have several interesting cards to play. Around De Lie, Lotto Dstny offers a very solid selection including Victor Campenaerts, Alec Segaert, Maxim Van Gils, Florian Vermeersch and Lennert Van Eetvelt. Yves Lampaert will defend his chances at Soudal while Dylan Teuns, Jasper Stuyven or Greg Van Avermaet will also have their say during this ordeal.
The Franco-Belgian Circuit will open the traditional triptych of Walloon semi-classics at the end of the season with the Famenne-Ardenne Classique in Marche-en-Famenne (01/10) and Binche-Chimay-Binche (03/10).
