"Jasper Philipsen Claims Thrilling Victory in Fastest Milan-San Remo Yet"
TL;DR
Jasper Philipsen won the fastest-ever edition of Milan-San Remo, narrowly beating Michael Matthews in a sprint finish after averaging 46.133kph over the 288km race. Tadej Pogačar came in third, leading attacks over the final climb. The race saw a flurry of attacks from pre-race favorites, resulting in a close finish. The breakaway of the day formed after 20km, with Philipsen's Alpecin-Deceuninck and Lidl-Trek controlling the peloton. The race's famous route remained largely unchanged, with the Passo del Turchino, three Capi, Cipressa, and Poggio featuring before the finish line.
