Lieuwe Westra (Vacansoleil-DCM) took the lead in the Tour of Belgium, winning the 5.6km prologue. Philippe Gilbert (Omega Pharma-Lotto) was in second place, one second down, with Dominique Cornu (Topsport Vlaanderen) another second back in third.
"I had come to the time trial to win, but I really had not expected to,” said Westra. “Normally I'm more one for the longer distances. It's incredible that I've won. I'm glad that I was successful, because Gilbert wasn't far behind.”
