The oldest race in the women's World Tour will be crowning its 49th winner tomorrow, and a fresh batch of knitted Alfredo frogs will get some new homes as well.
With RCS stepping up and finally introducing a second iteration of Milano-Sanremo for women, there were concerns to be had regarding its impact on this race. However the startlist actually looks stronger than what have been the case in recent editions. Demi Vollering attending for the first time since 2019 obviously does some heavy lifting here.
The course has become more durable sprinter friendly over the years, best illustrated by Elisa Balsamo winning two of the last three editions, and she would likely have won the third one, too, if Shirin van Anrooij hadn't been allowed to take a flyer two years ago. The organisers have beefed up the route a little bit this time around by adding a full 6th lap on the circuit, which means the race will break the 150 km barrier for the first time. We've previously heard that the circuit has been reopened to traffic before the last riders have finished, so I sincerely hope the longer route won't result in even more unsafe situations.
The race will begin at around 12:45 CET and will finish about four hours later. The live broadcast is scheduled to start at 15:45 on ES, or whatever it's now called in your country, but other sources claim there will be a stream available earlier than that.
