Tadej Pogačar wins Liège-Bastogne-Liège; 19-year-old Paul Seixas second
Tadej Pogačar won Liège-Bastogne-Liège, beating 19-year-old Paul Seixas into second and claiming his third consecutive victory at the Monument. Remco Evenepoel launched a massive early break that forced UAE Team Emirates and Decathlon CMA CGM to lead the chase. Seixas matched Pogačar's characteristic attack on the Côte de la Redoute and stayed with him for roughly 20 kilometers before losing contact on the final climb, handing Pogačar the win. Seixas's ride at 19 signals a genuine new contender in the classics while Pogačar reinforces his dominance at Liège.
