Longo Borghini tries in the final, but is caught just before the finish line

Lorena Wiebes wins the women's Milan-Sanremo, from Genoa to Sanremo, 156 km.

The group remains generally compact until the Capi. Before the Cipressa the speed increases and several athletes are involved in falls.

On the Cipressa, first the UAE of Longo Borghini and then the Lidl-Trek set the pace to control the situation in favor of Balsamo.

On the Poggio no one manages to make the difference and they reach the top in about fifteen. Longo Borghini tries to attack at the end of the descent, but is caught only in the last 200 meters, thanks to the work of Kopecky for Wiebes who capitalizes by winning the sprint ahead of Vos and Ruegg .
