Lotte Kopecky

Lotte Kopecky is one of the defining riders of the current women’s peloton, a Belgian leader whose best road racing combines cobbled strength, sprint speed, and the calm race sense needed to finish big one-day races.

Racing for Team SD Worx-Protime, she has become a central figure across the spring classics, especially in races where positioning, punch, and late-race power all matter. Her road success sits alongside a deep track background that sharpened her speed and tactical control.

That mix makes her one of the most watchable riders in the sport: strong enough to break a race apart, fast enough to finish it, and experienced enough to shape how the decisive kilometers are raced.
