Milan, Mar. 7 (LaPresse) – Tadej Pogacar continues to make history. The Slovenian dominates the 2026 edition of Strade Bianche and secures his fourth career victory in this race, already considered by many the sixth Monument Classic of the season. Second is the nineteen-year-old Frenchman Paul Seixas (Decathlon CMA CGM Team), who in the finale outsprints the Mexican Isaac Del Toro (UAE Emirates). The Frenchman Romain Grégoire (Groupama) finishes fourth ahead of Gianni Veermersch (Bora–Hansgrohe). The champion of UAE Team Emirates, racing in the rainbow jersey, launched a solo attack with 77 kilometers to go and completed his ride with a one-minute advantage over the French talent and U23 Tour de France winner. At Piazza del Campo, after crossing the finish line, Pogacar stopped, dismounted, raised his arms to the sky, and saluted the crowd with a bow. For him, a fourth victory at Strade Bianche, marking yet another record.
