INSANE: Neilson powless closing the gap to mathieu van der poel wout van aert | Rare Historical Photos

Neilson Powless on the attack in O Gran Camiño.

Neilson Powless (EF Education-EasyPost) has one goal this year, and it's to win a Classic. The 27-year-old is putting almost exclusive emphasis on this ambition after coming tantalisingly close to a podium in the Tour of Flanders last season.

Powless finished just behind Wout van Aert (Visma-Lease a Bike) in fifth place last year in Oudenaarde after Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) soloed to victory after escaping from Mathieu van der Poel (Alpecin-Deceuninck) and Van Aert.
