Mathieu van der Poel shocks Adam Blythe with manner of his Milano-San Remo win as he wins first Monument of 2023

Eurosport expert Adam Blythe says he was “shocked” by Mathieu van der Poel’s (Alpecin-Deceuninck) attack that saw him win Milano-San Remo for the first time. Van der Poel was part of a high quality quartet that consisted of himself, Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates), Wout van Aert (Jumbo-Visma) and Filippo Ganna (Ineos Grenadiers). Ad It was Pogacar and UAE Team Emirates who did most of the damage to the rest of the peloton, before Van der Poel went for a big attack of his own just before the crest of the Poggio climb and held on to win by 15 seconds from Ganna and Van Aert.

Milano — Sanremo‘You have to follow every attack’ – Pogacar on Poggio tactics ahead of Milano-San RemoYESTERDAY AT 22:29 “I don’t think we expected him to go,” said Blythe on The Breakaway. “Ultimately, you would back him in a sprint in that situation. “Pogacar has just gone on the attack and you could see how much Wout was suffering.

It was just at a point at a change of camera angles and we didn’t see the actual attack. “We were all a little bit taken aback and were like, ‘he’s gone, he’s gone, he’s gone’. But in that situation you can see the gap increasing.

Even at the top of the climb we were thinking they would get him back. “It shocked me to see how his form was in Tirreno-Adriatico to what it was here because that was another gear up. I was quite shocked with it.” Van der Poel won his fifth cyclo-cross world title earlier this year but hadn’t showed much on the road before Milano-San Remo.
