When Van Der Poel is on, he's incredible. Amazing win!

what a beautiful job by Mathieu ....not only the surge just at the right moment over the top to create the small but critical gap but then continuing on rounding all those switchbacks so perfectly all the way down to the finish to keep the other strongest bike riders in the world who were still clearly chasing hard as they could the entire way, only off his tail by just a handful of secs. .... which at the finish turned out to be plenty !

There's some others. Strade Bianche when van der Poel won it. The final group of 6 had the World Champion (Alaphillippe), a former TdF champion (Bernal), former CX World Champion (Wout van Aert), future MTB Olympic gold medalist (Pidcock), and the current TdF champion at that time (Pogacar). That being said, this final group of 4 was equally epic.

'4 totally different riders' ? Van der Poel and Van Aert ? The past 10 years almost any road classic or cyclecross race on tv , you see WvA and MvdP in one shot. There are not many rider 'duos' so similar. There is only one minor difference. You see Van Aert work for TJV in the Tour and Van der Poel will give it a go on the mountainbike.

Bravo Mathieu Van Der Poel et un Grand Merci !

To me, the key moment is when he let Van Aert exhaust himself filling the gap with Ganna and Pogacar. Those 2 meters were too much for Van Aert. He closed them but also saved MVDP precious watts and gave him a moral boost seeing VA struggling.

I don't feel great about Ganna getting 2nd. Those 3 might've had a chance to catch VdP if he could've held Wout's wheel through the turns. Instead, MvdP, Wout and Ganna were all pushing air and Pogacar is smaller (weighs less) than those 3. So when they got to the flat, the gap had actually gone up maybe 2 seconds and everyone was gassed, the chasers didn't have the advantage they could have had. Not taking anything away from MvdP, he was powerful and had great tactics.

Cosmic facepalm for the director of the broadcast at 2:28, what an idiot. We missed most of MVDP's move while he zoomed in on Hermans, Pedersen and Mohoric. These 3 had already lost all relevance as soon as the split happened but somehow he gave them 10 seconds of airtime in the Poggio. Thanks to him we all missed the move that allowed MVDP to get away from some of the greatest riders of our generation.

Nei giorni scorsi alcuni "sapienti" di ciclismo sentenziavano: - Filippo Ganna, per migliorare su strada, deve mettere da parte la pista. - Mthieu Van der Poel, per la stessa ragione deve dimenticare un po' il ciclo-cross. - Idem per Van Aert. A giudicare dalla classifica della Milano-Sanremo (1° - 2° - 3°) mi sembra che facciano bene a continuare come prima, infischiandosene dei giudizi di chi commenta ma non pedala. Quanto a Pogacar (4°)... "tra cotanto senno"..., che non corre su pista e non pedala nel fango, va fortissimo su strada, ma la Milano-Sanremo non mi pare abbastanza adatta alle sue caratteristiche (non offre sufficienti asperità; avete visto come il pistard ha placcato, in salita, lo scalatore). ...
