Three-time Strade Bianche champion Fabian Cancellara says he would lose no sleep over seeing the joint record for victories in the Italian Classic that he currently shares with Tadej Pogačar finally superceded by the Slovenian star on Saturday.
Expectations are high that the UAE Team Emirates-XRG leader will start his 2026 season at Strade Bianche exactly as he left off in Italy at Il Lombardia last October: by winning.
