Cavendish has struggled to deliver effects this season and will likely play a supporting role in Gent-Wevelgem. However, the team has said he will race for the former world road champion at Scheldeprijs, who will take up position on Wednesday, October 14.
Cavendish has won the Belgian race a day 3 times in his career, being in 2011. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the race will take place in 10 laps of a 17. 4 km circuit in and around Schoten.
“We’ll be there with Mark Cavendish, who did very well. “
“It will even do it as a sprinter’s career, ” said Hoffman.
