Race Recap
Van Der Poel wins
Mathieu Van Der Poel (ADC) powered to the Netherlands' first Milan San Remo win in almost 40 years after attacking on the Poggio and crossing the line in San Remo just 15 seconds ahead of a small chase group. Filippo Ganna (IGD) sprinted to second place ahead of Wout van Aert (Jumbo Visma). Tadej Pogačar (UAD) finished just off the podium in fourth after almost seven hours in the saddle.
"I cannot imagine a better scenario than this one," Van der Poel said after the race. "I knew I wanted to place an attack at the end of the Poggio. I managed to find a small gap between Pogačar and the wall. This is one of the races I really wanted to win. The way I won it today is beyond expectation, I'm really happy with this one. It's one that every rider wants to win one day. I was really focused already on this race since I started training again after cyclo-cross Worlds. Tirreno[-Adriatico wasn't as good as I expected, but I knew that I needed some race days to get to my best level and today, this was my best level, I think."
