Čo viac dodať. Skončilo to presne ako som predpokladal, ale bás som sa to vysloviť. Veril som Filipovi, že vyhrá ... a vyhral. Veril som, že jednoducho McCormac a Vanhoenacker na neho nebudú mať (predsa je to pre nich iba príprava na IM Austria, alebo IM Germany a nie sú už taký rýchlici), obával som sa Raelerta a Boeckela, ale Filip to dokázal a to v tej najsilnejšej konkurencii. Klobúk dole a gratulácia. Zrodila sa nová hviezda bezhákových pretekov.
