Saturday March 21st 2026 - Milano-Sanremo Donne: Genova - Sanremo (156 km)
Milano-Sanremo Donne 2026 promises high drama over its established 156 km from Genoa to Sanremo. Skipping Milan's full run-in and the Passo del Turchino, the route dives straight into coastal challenges along the Riviera di Ponente, hitting the three Capi (Mele, Cervo, Berta) before the decisive finale. The Cipressa (5.6 km at 4.1%) looms 21.6 km out, followed by the Poggio (3.7 km at 3.7%) with 9 km remaining: climbs that test timing after four-plus hours.
Sprinters like Lorena Wiebes and Elisa Balsamo will target the fast, twisting Poggio descent and urban Via Roma finish, but puncheurs such as Lotte Kopecky or Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig could split the peloton early amid coastal winds. Will Wiebes join the first over the top of the Poggio and will she win her second Milano-Sanremo in a row at the Via Roma?
