The event was rebranded "E3 BinckBank Classic" due to a sponsorship agreement with Dutch online discount broker BinckBank. However, the race perpetuates its ties with Harelbeke, which continues to host the start and finish. The total distance is 203.9 kilometres (126.7 mi), featuring 15 categorized climbs in the Flemish Ardennes and five flat sectors of cobbled roads.[2] Dutch rider Niki Terpstra won the previous edition in 2018.[3]
