The SlovenianTadej Pogacar (UAE) won the Milan-San Remo Classicfor the first time in a tight esprint after defeating Tom Pidcock (Pinarello-Q36.5).

The great 27-year-old cyclist had a few victories left in his vast palmaris. One of them was the Milan-San Remo. He had competed five times before, and twice ended up on the podium.

It was a date marked in red in his calendar, and with the umpteenth display he has taken the first monument of the year. Moreover, he has fallen within 30 kilometers of the finish line, but that has not crushed him either. 

Pogacar has put Mathieu Van der Poel out of the game after several repeated attacks, while Pidcock has resisted to the end and the sprint has been spectacular. In the end, the Slovenian has been imposed by a few centimeters. Wout Van Aert has been third. 

For their part, the Basque cyclists Alex Aranburu (Cofidis) and Jon Barrenetxea (Movistar) have finished in 12th and 20th place respectively.

In the women's test, the Belgian Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx-Protime) won the Milan-San Remo by defeating the Swiss Noemi Ruegg (EF Education) and the Italian Eleonora Gasparrini (UAE Team ADQ).

Kopecky has also had time to raise his arms in the Milan-San Remo Women's Classic, where he has competed for the second year. The competition has been decided in the last few meters.

The Guipuzcoan cyclist UsoaOstolaza (Laboral Kutxa-Euskadi Foundation) has entered 13th place.
