Records in Brabantse Pijl

Belgian riders were by far the most successful in the Brabantse Pijl. Edwig Van Hooydonck outperformed each and everyone by winning the race four times. His first victory was in 1987 and his last in 1995. He didn’t succeed in winning the Brabantse Pijl back-to-back, though.

During the years 2005-2007 a Spaniard took control of the race. Oscar Freire won the Brabantse Pijl three times in a row.

Philippe Gilbert is the only active rider to win the race twice.
