Two days ago Lars van der Haar made it clear that he prefers not to wear the jersey that he had just won at the European Championships.
"This is not the most beautiful jersey in the world. When I won the title five years ago as a U23 rider, I could choose a different design. That was nice jersey: all blue with a beautiful ring. That is a very beautiful European jersey. But that does not prevent you from giving everything in such a race: a jersey is a jersey, whether it is ugly or not," he told Het Nieuwsblad.
When the Dutchman will wear the jersey is still not clear. "The race in Ruddervoorde came too early. The team has asked the manufacturer to make it," he said after his poor performance in Ruddervoorde. With his sixth place, Van der Haar drops from second to fourth in the Superprestige standings.
