GP Monseré – Stanislaw Aniolkowski 5th

Once again, the GP Monseré kept spectators on the edge of their seats. Following a solo victory in 2025, the 2026 edition nearly rewarded several riders who broke away in the final stretch of the race on Sunday, March 22, 2026. Although it took until the final 60 kilometers to see a breakaway form—which included Jan Maas—the rest of the GP Monseré was much more lively, with breakaway attempts multiplying. Ultimately, it was in the final few hundred meters that the peloton fought for the win, catching the last remaining escapees in the process. Stanislaw Aniolkowski secured 5th place for our team. 
 

Sébastien Demarbaix, sports director: "Before the start, we had a Plan A: a sprint with Milan Fretin, and a Plan B: a sprint with Stanislaw Aniolkowski or Jenthe Biermans. After being sick for about ten days, Milan was far from 100%. At the halfway point, he was more than fair and honest with the team and announced that he wouldn’t be able to sprint as usual. So we went with Plan B for Stanislaw. 
The race started off very fast: we’re averaging 50 km/h today. The only real breakaway before the finish was a group of 8 riders who gained a maximum of 25 seconds, with Jan Maas leading the team. Then, in the final 20 kilometers, we had a duo at the front on very narrow roads. A 5-man counterattack broke away with strong teams at the front. We were far from in control over the final 10 kilometers. We managed to sprint for the win because Unibet Rose Rockets came to close the gap. Stanislaw secured a strong second-place finish. We salvaged the situation with this plan because, with 10 km to go, we had absolutely no control over the race. 
The group worked hard again today, even though a podium finish is always better than a Top 5. The team did what was needed today to salvage the situation. We’re missing just a little something, but we’re not coming away with zero points. I’m happy with this series of races with almost the same riders and just a few sick ones."
