Demi Vollering powers to victory in women’s racePogacar denies Tom Pidcock after earlier tumble
Slovenia’s Tadej Pogacar won the men’s Strade Bianche on Saturday for the third time in his career, after recovering from a fall 50km from the finish.
Pogacar topped the podium by 1min 24sec ahead of second-placed Briton Tom Pidcock, with Belgium’s Tim Wellens a further 48sec adrift. After victory in the Tuscan one-day race in 2022 and 2024, the 26-year-old Pogacar now equals Swiss rider Fabian Cancellara’s record of three victories in the race.
