What a finale to Milan-San Remo. It's a race that's always about the finale, as we know, but in this year's races, both men's and women's, they were something special. In many ways, the unfortunate crash for Tadej Pogačar, Mathieu van der Poel and others just before the Cipressa, and the way they immediately bounced back from that and attacked on the climb, only added to how special this year's edition of the men's race was.
After the crash, you'd say to most normal riders, 'Take a moment to recover for a little while here,' but Pogačar was immediately flying up the outside of everybody and back to the front. To go from hitting the deck to what occurred next in such a short space of time, you have to give it to him; he just keeps on putting in these mind-boggling performances.
