Il Lombardia is on Saturday, and for the first time since 2020 Tadej Pogacar will not win it. Remco Evenepoel goes to Como as the new European champion. In Slovenia he crashed on a descent, attacked again and beat Giulio Ciccone in a photo finish.

We look back at the Euros. Evenepoel crashed and got back on quickly. Ciccone stopped taking turns while Christian Scaroni chased alone in third. Belgium rode for one leader only, with Ramses Debruyne and Maxim Van Gils doing the work. Demi Vollering won the women's race solo in her first race as world champion. We also cover the Giro dell'Emilia, where Davide Piganzoli won, Tom Pidcock was second again, and Brandon McNulty attacked in the rainbow jersey.

Then we turn to Lombardia: 239 kilometres from Bergamo to Como over the Madonna del Ghisallo. The finale is the same as in 2022, over San Fermo della Battaglia and Civiglio, with a fast descent to the line. Does that suit Evenepoel, Pidcock or Paul Seixas best? How does UAE split leadership if Isaac del Toro starts next to McNulty? Can Enric Mas win a classic? We also discuss Bram's stat that Evenepoel and Primož Roglič never shared a race day as Red Bull teammates.

We finish with our podium picks and say goodbye to Bauke Mollema and Pello Bilbao, who both retire at the end of the season.
